Dr. Bradford C. Dickerson led a conversation about FTD during a recent MD Magazine video panel on Alzheimer’s disease. The program is part of the Peer Exchange series, which involves panel discussions with medical professionals about specific diseases or conditions and related topics.

Dr. Dickerson is the director of the Frontotemporal Disorders Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital, and the chair elect of AFTD’s Medical Advisory Council. In the video, he addresses symptoms that prompt an FTD diagnosis, including both behavioral and language changes.

The panel also discusses varying ways in which symptoms of Alzheimer’s might present in persons with the disease.
