Brief summary (registry, in English)

The current study seeks to examine the prevalence of amyloid pathology, among patients referred to the Toulouse Geriatric Frailty Clinic presenting objective memory impairment. We also aim to fully characterize the clinical progression of frail cognitively impaired patients presenting AD (Alzheimer Disease) pathology vs those who also present a cognitive impairment but do not have AD pathology.
