The Value of Brain FDG-PET or SPECT in predicting the clinical features of Corticobasal Syndrome

Conclusions: Dystonia and apraxia of speech were most closely related to a non-AD and myoclonus to an AD functional pattern of CBS. Individuals with an AD pattern presented with lower ACE-R and MMSE and higher HY scale scores. Functional nuclear imaging shows a potential to predict the different CBS variants while depicting their specific functional patterns.
