Grey Matter Atrophy in Mild Cognitive Impairment / Early Alzheimer Disease Associated with Delusions: A Voxel-Based Morphometry Study

Abstract

Greater right fronto-temporal grey matter atrophy was observed in MCI or early AD participants with delusions compared to matched patients without delusions. Consistent with our predictions, asymmetric grey matter atrophy in the right hemisphere may contribute to development of delusions through loss of executive inhibition.
