Quantitative EEG Abnormalities and Cognitive Dysfunctions in Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease

Abstract

FTD patients reveal a different pattern of qEEG changes than AD patients. This result demonstrates the importance of qEEG for FTD diagnosis. Cognition is selectively better in FTD than in AD. A combination of qEEG and neuropsychology is recommended for differential diagnoses of FTD and AD.
