Title | Value of magnetic resonance spectroscopy in geriatric patients with cognitive impairment |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to study the difference of hippocampal and frontal white matter metabolites between patients with Alzheimer’s disease, mild cognitive impairment, and cognitive impairment associated with depression, and control subjects using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Four groups were recruited, including Alzheimer’s disease group (n = 20), cognitive impairment with depression group (n = 23), mild cognitive impairment group (n = 15), and control group (n = 15). |
