title: [Multiple facets of Alzheimer type dementia].
abstract: Alzheimer type dementia is frequent. Clinical research aims at an early diagnosis are justified by promising treatment opportunities. An early diagnosis is also necessary if we want to slow down the consequences of the disease. The evolution is very variable and this is extremely disturbing for patients and their caregivers. Consequently, the therapeutic aim is to adapt daily living activities to the abilities of the patient (and the caregiver), in order to maintain an optimal quality of life.
