Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is a neuropathological diagnosis that could be linked to many clinical syndromes. Thus, the clinical diagnosis remains a challenge. In-vivo biomarkers, both those related to neurodegeneration and protein-based ones, could improve the specificity of the diagnosis, which could be helpful to guide the patient selection in some new disease-modifying therapies. In this chapter, we describe an illustrative case of corticobasal syndrome where imaging biomarkers can help the clinician to reach the most probable underlying neuropathological diagnosis.

摘要

Corticobasal degeneration (CBD) is a neuropathological diagnosis that could be linked to many clinical syndromes. Thus, the clinical diagnosis remains a challenge. In-vivo biomarkers, both those related to neurodegeneration and protein-based ones, could improve the specificity of the diagnosis, which could be helpful to guide the patient selection in some new disease-modifying therapies. In this chapter, we describe an illustrative case of corticobasal syndrome where imaging biomarkers can help the clinician to reach the most probable underlying neuropathological diagnosis.
