Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate cortical mean diffusivity (cMD) as a sensitive biomarker for early neurodegenerative changes in familial frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) associated with C9orf72, GRN, and MAPT mutations. We compared cMD with cortical thickness (cTH) in detecting subtle microstructural alterations and examined its association with clinical severity and neurofilament light chain...
