Abstract:Objectiye To investigate the relationship between dementia degree of multi - infarct dementia(MID)and CT findiugs. MethodThe volume and location of focal lesion as well as the presence of cerebral atrophy in 44 MID patents with mild dementia, 40 MID patients withmoderate dementia, 38 MID patients with severe dementia were compared. Result The volume of focal lesion correlated with dementia degreeof MID. The bigger the volume was, the heavier the dementia was. The cerebral atropohy was heavier in patients with severe dementia than thatin patients with other dementia. Dementia degree of MID should no correlation with the location of focal lesion. Conclusion The volume andcerebral atrophy were important the factor for determing dementia degree of MID.
