ABSTRACT
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is defined as the transitional
state between the cognitive changes of normal aging and early
onset dementia. Recently increased efforts have been made
to identify the clinical characteristics of MCI due to interest in
identifying the characteristics of dementia disorders such as
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Because MCI represents the earliest
stage of such diseases, its clinical, epidemiological, neuroimaging,
and neuropathological study is of interest.
