ABSTRACT Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is pivotal to the evaluation of cerebral atrophy in Alzheimer's disease ( AD ). Although there are several scoring systems identify areas interest, possibility having a simple and practical scale focused on evaluating parietal by MRI single axial slice T2‐Flair sequencing would be highly advantageous. We develop validate Mimenza–Aguilar–Herrera (MAH) visual determine degree modified analyzing posterior cingulate gyrus an T2 weighted individuals with...
