Abstract

Fronto-temporal dementia (FTD) is the most common form of primary degenerative dementia after Alzheimer's disease that affects middle age with an estimated prevalence at 15 per 100,000 in the population aged between 45 – 65 years. FTD is often misdiagnosed due to its early onset, clinical and pathological heterogeneity. Neuroimaging is known to assist in early diagnosis of these disorders. We present a case of a 59 year old woman with FTD.
