finding difficulties. The MRI shows asymmetric left perisylvian atrophy,

just similar to like what we saw in the other case.

You can see the definite enlargement of the sulci here compared to the
0:16
normal appearing contralateral side. And this patient had an FDG PET/MRI.

Here is the surface map. We see hypometabolism in the left temporal and
0:28
the left parietal. Here is again left temporal and left parietal cortices.
0:33
But you see only on one side. Look here on the left.
0:37
This is looking from behind, which is why this is left and not
0:40
right. And here's the right, which looks normal. Here again is the left
0:43
hand side. This is another patient with logopenic progressive aphasia, again

a subcategory of Alzheimer's disease.
