Imaging In Dementia With Multi- Slice Computed Tomography: A Practical Approach

Abstract

To help to specify the diagnosis of dementia structural neuroimaging with computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging is recommended in current guidelines. Computed tomography has many advantages in everyday clinical imaging. It is fast, robust, widely available and there are no relevant contraindications. In this short review a practical approach for imaging in dementia with multislice computed tomography is presented.
