Key Points

This research aims to validate the Behavioral Evaluation Scale of Frontotemporal Dementia (BES-FTD) for distinguishing bvFTD from Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
Compared diagnostic accuracy of BES-FTD with CBI-R
Focused on bvFTD and AD
Conducted a pilot study to assess clinical utility
BES-FTD showed higher diagnostic accuracy than CBI-R
Indicated effectiveness in distinguishing bvFTD from AD

Implication

Pilot study demonstrates the BES-FTD's superior diagnostic accuracy for bvFTD versus AD, suggesting clinical utility.
