  • Title: [Dementias: mostly clinico-neuropsychological or mostly psychometric diagnosis?].
    Author: Spinnler H.
    Journal: Ann Ist Super Sanita; 2005; 41(1):75-80. PubMed ID: 16037654.
    Abstract:
    In this paper many critical reflections on diagnosis management of patients affected by dementia have been reported. In particular, the importance of clinico-neuropsychological evaluation of patients with respect to management prevalently based on neuropsychological tests is underlined. In this view a periodic diagnostic exercise with the objective of improving the diagnostic approach of dementias has been proposed to the Alzheimer's disease units (UVA) included in the Cronos Project.
