We assess validation, clinical utility, and reproducibility of a qualitative visual CIS scale in the differential diagnosis with Alzheimer's disease (AD) in a memory clinic setting.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Sixty\u2010seven patients were studied: 36 LBD, of whom 30 with dementia (DLB) and 6 with mild cognitive impairment (MCI\u2010LB), and 31\u2009AD (20 typical and 11 atypical presentations). They underwent FDG\u2010PET\/MRI scans and were followed for at least 24\u2009months. The visual CIS rating scale was scored by a nuclear medicine physician and a neurologist independently. Qualitative CIS scores were validated with ROI\u2010based semiquantitative FDG analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Mean CIS scores were 1.84\u2009\u00b1\u20091.69 for LBD and 0.9\u2009\u00b1\u20091.24 for AD (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.001). With a cutoff CIS score\u2009\u22652, sensitivity was 0.56, and specificity 0.81 (accuracy 0.67). Positive CIS in patients with AD was due to atypical presentations. Negative CIS in LBD was due to (i) normal FDG\u2010PET in MCI\u2010LB or (ii) marked hypometabolism of both the PCC and cuneus. Visual CIS scores correlated with FDG\u2010uptake (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.45; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and held a high inter\u2010specialists concordance.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The visual CIS scale can be successfully scored by different specialists.
