Frontotemporal lobar degeneration.
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a syndromic diagnosis that encompasses at least three different variants. Imaging modalities are clinically useful in FTLD, although pathology remains the gold standard for definitive diagnosis. To date, four different genes have been identified that account for FTLD.
