Regional brain volume changes in Hakim’s disease versus Alzheimer’s and mild cognitive impairment
Ventricular enlargement and disproportionately enlarged subarachnoid space hydrocephalus are characteristics of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (Hakim’s disease).
The researchers evaluated disease-specific patterns of brain volume changes in Hakim’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, Hakim’s disease with Alzheimer’s disease, and mild cognitive impairment.
The authors identified distinct brain volume patterns in idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus, Alzheimer’s, and mild cognitive impairment, aiding in differential diagnosis.
