| Opplysninger | Recent clinical and neuropathological studies suggest the possibilityof distinguishing some forms of cortical degeneration fromAlzheimer's disease. We report data on the frequency of non-Alzheimerforms of cerebral atrophy that were diagnosed on the basis ofclinical criteria. Six examples of these neurological disorders aredescribed: two patients with Lewy body disease; two patients withfrontal lobe type dementia, one of whom had associated features ofmotor neuron disease; a patient with primary progressive aphasia; anda patient with a familial dementia that was probably an atypical formof Pick's disease.
