[Cerebral atrophy diagnosed by computer tomography compared with the "memory output profile" (MOP) in a psychiatric population].
The scope of the present study was a comparison between the profile of André Rey's mnesic rates and the results of CAT-scans for which were selected two groups of 20 patients, one of the groups suffering from brain atrophy and one presenting normal scans. The essential data derived from the present study is the practically complete lack of differences between both groups. Still, for the group suffering from brain atrophy slight variations appear in some sub-testing experiments in which memory only is not concerned but also the shape of simplified schemes to be reconstrued. It may thus be concluded that the notion of brain atrophy differs from the clinical concept of mnesic deterioration.
