Brief Summary

Dementia is a term for the impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities. Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia. Though dementia mostly affects older adults, it is not a part of normal aging. This study aims to assess the role of volumetric MRI in evaluation of different types of dementia.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • MRI Accuracy in dementia

    Assess the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in differentiate between normal aging and cases of dementia

    1 week

Interventions

A standardized multi-parametric MRI protocol will be implemented for all patients. All sequences will be acquired on a 1.5 Tesla scanner. After completion of the MRI study, the digital imaging and communication data will be sent to a diagnostic workstation for post-processing and analysis. Patients of the study will be subjected to detailed structural MRI for detection of signs of neurodegenerative changes. Volumetric high-resolution 3D scans will be used for quantitative study.

Eligibility Criteria

Age60 Years - 90 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

The study will be conducted over the period of 2 years during which all available cases with dementia presented to the Neurology Centre at Assiut university well be investigated.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with any type of dementia.
  • Patients with mini mental state examination equal or more than 18.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with contra-indications to MRI.
