Dementia is a devastating diagnosis for patients
Dementia comes in many forms that can be hard to differentiate.
Arriving at an accurate diagnosis without subjecting an already
wary patient to unnecessary tests requires clinical acumen.
Identifying the correct dementia, and determining a probable
prognosis, allows agreement on appropriate management and care with
patients and their carers.
But how much testing is needed? What do the tests tell you? What
management options are available?
Dementia provides a progressive approach to help you
identify and manage the many forms of this complex and devastating
disease. Dr Quinn has assembled a team of expert neurologists and
gerontologists to provide the foundation knowledge you need to
develop the clinical wisdom for effective dementia care.
Dementia clearly explains the diagnosis, investigations and
management for
* Normal pressure hydrocephalus
* Mild cognitive impairment
* Alzheimer's disease
* Vascular dementia
* Dementia with Lewy bodies
* Fronto-temporal dementia
Clinical in approach, practical in execution, Dementia
helps you diagnose and treat your patients more effectively.

Autoren-Porträt
Joseph Quinn, MD, Associate Professor of Neurology, Oregon Health and Science UniversityDr. Quinn has served as a neurologist clinician in the Oregon Alzheimer's Disease Center since 1994 and has served as Director of the Genetics and Biomarkers Core since 2007.
Dr. Quinn's overall research focus is on developing strategies for treating and preventing Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. Specific research projects range from animal studies testing experimental agents, up to large national multi-center clinical trials of experimental drugs for dementing illnesses. The translation of ideas from the laboratory to the clinic is a particular interest, which is served in part by the Biomarkers core of the Oregon Alzheimer's Center. The Biomarkers Core helps develop blood tests and other disease markers for use in "proof of concept" clinical trials which are necessary to move treatment ideas from animal models to human subjects.
