The relationship of topographical memory performance to regional neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease

The relationship of topographical memory performance to regional neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease

The network activated during normal route learning shares considerable homology with the network of degeneration in the earliest symptomatic stages of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This inspired the Virtual Route Learning Test (VRLT) in which patients learn routes in a virtual reality environment. This...
