Abstract

I herein present a unique statement, not focusing on the specific area but present an integrated viewpoint through MRI epidemiology to animal experiment. The aim is to provide a perspective for better understanding clinical features of Alzheimer disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD). It is well known that AD and VaD are two major dementing diseases [1,2], and the clinical features are different; grossly, AD shows disintegrated emotion and cognitive function, and VaD shows apathy. First, I will present two typical VaD cases.
