Clinical Trial Summary

To establish diagnostic tools to make an accurate clinical and pathological diagnosis of patients with clinical FTLD syndromes


Clinical Trial Description

The goal of this study is to determine the best diagnostic test for diagnosing frontotemporal lobar degeneration. To accomplish this, the current study will evaluate different tests: brain imaging, skin biopsy, body fluid samples (blood and cerebrospinal fluid), thinking abilities, everyday functioning, and brain autopsy. The study team hopes that this information can be used to guide diagnosis and further understanding of mechanism of disease in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration and possibly treatment in the future. ;
