Faster Cortical Thinning and Surface Area Loss in Presymptomatic and Symptomatic C9orf72 Repeat Expansion Adult Carriers
14 Apr 2020
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: C9orf72 expansion is the most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). We examined aging trajectories of cortical thickness (CTh) and surface area in C9orf72 expansion adult carriers compared to healthy controls to characterize preclinical cerebral changes leading to symptoms. METHODS: Data were obtained from the Genetic Frontotemporal Dementia Initiative. T1-weighted magnetic resonance...
