Important work showing social cognition, including facial emotion recognition, can help to differentiate behaviour variant frontotemporal dementia from phenocopy-bvFTD syndromes. #FTD #social #affective #neuroscience
Published today: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… “Social Cognition differentiates phenocopy-bvFTD from #bvFTD”. Great work by @MP_vanEngelen that can help clinicians when in diagnostic doubt!
