“…These lesions are associated with neurodegeneration, which is at least partly reflected in gray matter atrophy and glucose hypometabolism measured with structural MRI and positron emission tomography with 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 FDG-PET), respectively. The overlapping alterations in Alzheimer's disease and semantic dementia have been highlighted in previous neuroimaging studies showing common gray matter atrophy to both disorders in medial temporal lobe structures (e.g., hippocampus, amygdala, entorhinal and parahippocampal cortex), lateral temporal and orbitofrontal regions (Chan et al, 2001;Galton et al, 2001;Nestor et al, 2006;Schroeter and Neumann, 2011;La Joie et al, 2013Bejanin et al, 2017). Similarly, both Alzheimer's disease and semantic dementia harbored decreased metabolism in medial and lateral temporal regions (Nestor et al, 2006;Drzezga et al, 2008).…”
