Imaging in neurodegenerative disorders: recent studies.
OBJECTIVE
Advances in neuroimaging have expanded its already central role in neurodegenerative disorders.


RESULTS
The main advances we emphasize are imaging of amyloid in Alzheimer's disease, serial co-registered magnetic resonance imaging in frontotemporal lobar degeneration and imaging of nigrostriatal dysfunction in dementia with Lewy bodies.


CONCLUSIONS
All of these techniques offer ways of improving diagnosis.
