Abstract

Cognitive impairments are an important medical and social problem associated with a high prevalence of this disease in the population. 46% of patients develop dementia within 5 years after the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairments (MCIs). Voxelbased morphometry (VBM) is a modern neuroimaging technique well-proven in studying dementia. VBM in a combination with neuropsychological examination of patients enables clarifying the genesis of mild cognitive impairments (MCIs) and predicting further development of the disease as early as the initial stage of the pathology.
