Assessing the metabolism of the olfactory circuit by use of 18F-FDG PET-CT imaging in patients suspected of suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or frontotemporal dementia

Assessing the metabolism of the olfactory circuit by use of 18F-FDG PET-CT imaging in patients suspected of suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or frontotemporal dementia

Abstract Purpose The loss of olfactory function is known to occur in patients suffering from (behavioral variant) frontotemporal dementia ((bv)FTD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), although different pathophysiological mechanisms underpin this clinical symptom in both disorders.
