Magnetic resonance imaging biomarkers in genetic FTD

MRI provides a suite of tools for safe, non‐invasive, repeatable and scalable assessment of the changes in brain structure and function associated with neurodegenerative disease. MRI has been part of the principal assessment in the international Genetic Frontotemporal Dementia Initiative since 2012 (GENFI). This presentation reviews the goals and achievements of MRI in GENFI, and considers future directions to elucidate disease mechanisms, inform clinical trials design, and provide single subject prognosis.
