Exploring patterns of alteration in Alzheimer’s disease brain networks: a combined structural and functional connectomics analysis

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a severe derangement of cognitive functions, primarily memory, in elderly subjects. As far as the functional impairment is concerned, growing evidence supports the disconnection syndrome hypothesis. Recent investigations using...
