InFo Neurologie & Psychiatrie Aims and scope

Zusammenfassung

Nicht nur unsere Gesellschaft, sondern auch Ärzte sind nur unzureichend auf den prognostizierten Anstieg der Patientenzahlen mit Alzheimer-Demenz (AD) vorbereitet. Diese und zukünftige Generationen von Neurologen und Psychiatern werden sich intensiv mit der Diagnose und Behandlung von AD-Patienten, aber auch mit Fragen zur Pathogenese und Prävention auseinandersetzen müssen.
