This cover image illustrates the point that functional brain activation abnormalities that are observed in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, are dependent on both the parts of the brain that are activated by the functional task (top) and on the parts of the brain affected by the disease (bottom). Top image shows areas of cortex activated by successful memory formation and bottom image shows areas of cortex that are affected by early Alzheimer's disease.
