摘要：
Neuropsychological assessment can identify deficits in brain function that assist in the diagnosis of patients with dementing illness. Fields et al. highlight the unique properties of neuropsychological measurements, including their role as biomarkers of dementia, in differentiating diseases with similar topographies, and in predicting the risk of dementia. Prediction of functional decline on the basis of these measurements will assist in planning of the future care requirements for patients at risk of dementia.
