AMD and Brain Atrophy: Q&A with Drs. Stout, Whitson, and Badea of Duke University —People with late-life vision impairment, specifically from AMD, are at higher risk of subsequent cognitive decline.

Twelve years ago, clinicians gathered in Vancouver, Canada, for the first international working group meeting on posterior cortical atrophy. At the time, PCA was obscure. It lacked consensus on ...

Posterior cortical atrophy, an effective early-warning symptom of Alzheimer's, is characterized by an inability to judge distances, distinguish moving objects and retrieve dropped objects, even ...

To figure this out, researchers examined data on almost 1,100 people who had what’s known as posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), a condition that involves shrunken tissue in brain regions that ...

Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) overwhelmingly predicts Alzheimer’s, the researchers found. Some 94% of the PCA patients had Alzheimer’s pathology and the remaining 6% had conditions like Lewy body ...
