Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Early-stage behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is often misdiagnosed, highlighting the need for new diagnostic instruments. Based on the revised diagnostic criteria for bvFTD, we developed the Behavioural Dysfunction Questionnaire (BDQ). In this explorative study, we aimed to determine the best scoring and analytical method for the BDQ to discriminate between bvFTD and non-bvFTD patients.
