The study achieved strong diagnostic performance for frontotemporal dementia using brain volumetry.
An accuracy of 89.3% in training and 84.6% in external validation was noted using a linear SVM classifier.
Key volumetric features included the frontal lobes and cingulate cortex, critical for diagnosing FTD.
This automated tool could help differentiate frontotemporal dementia from Alzheimer's disease in clinical settings.
