  • Title: Dementia: a major disease of aging.
    Author: Greer M.
    Journal: Geriatrics; 1982 Apr; 37(4):101-3, 107-11, 114. PubMed ID: 7060943.
    Abstract:
    Mental deterioration and behavioral changes are particularly distressing effects of brain disorders. Differential diagnosis of dementing conditions is important because some are treatable. The physician must separate primary psychologic disorders from the dementias, and use office tests for evaluating a patient's neuropsychologic function.
