Abstract
Clinical assessment of patients with varying degrees of dementia disclosed no significant neurologic disease. Computed tomography (CT) studies of these patients permitted the measurement of ventricular and sulcal sizes which did not apparently relate to mental status, but which did relate to age.Keywords
