Medial Temporal Lobe Atrophy on MRI in Dementia with Lewy Bodies
Neurol 52:1153-1158, Barber,R.,et al, 1999
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Patients with DLB have significantly greater MTA than control subjects buy significantly less than those with AD. The authors confirmed that the presence of MTA is useful in detecting AD but less useful in differentiating between dementias. However, in the differentiation of DLB from AD and VaD, the absence of MTA is highly suggestive of a diagnosis of DLB.
