Dementia is amongst the greatest challenges facing the medical
profession as the population ages. Accurate diagnosis is essential
as many rarer forms of the disease are treatable if recognized
early. This collection of case studies from around the world
illustrates both common and unusual causes of dementia, emphasizing
clinical reasoning, integrative thinking and problem-solving
skills. Each case consists of a clinical history, examination
findings and special investigations, followed by diagnosis and
discussion. The aim is to reinforce diagnostic skills through
careful analysis of individual presenting patterns, and to guide
treatment decisions, using state-of-the-art diagnostic
classification and tools. The reader will be able to distinguish
patients who need reassurance, closer follow-up or immediate
referral to specialized services. Written and edited by
internationally recognized experts in dementia, these case studies
will inform and challenge clinicians at all stages of their
careers.
