  1. aPatient 13 had evidence of AD and CBD pathology, but AD was the predominant pathology. AD, Alzheimer’s disease; CBD, corticobasal degeneration; fvCBS, frontal variant corticobasal syndrome; FDG-Qual, fluorodeoxyglucose PET qualitative (visual assessment); LBD, Lewy body disease; FDG-Quant, fluorodeoxyglucose PET quantitative (computed using ROI); PET, positron emission tomography; PSP, progressive supranuclear palsy; ROI, region of interest; tpvCBS, temporoparietal variant CBS. A ‘+’ or ‘-’ indicates positive or negative, respectively.
