Brain FDG\u2010PET was available in 32 LO_PCA cases, 23 EO_PCA cases and all tAD cases, and their scans were compared with scans from 30 healthy elderly controls.

The latter group also showed mesial temporal hypometabolism, similarly to the tAD group, although with a right rather than left lateralization.
