   Proposal Description:
   TO determine if patients with a clinical diagnosis of behavioral variant FTD or   one of the motor variants (CBD, PSP) (NOT PPA) and a neuropath diagnosis of AD    have similar frequency of e4 allele to patients with dementia of the Alzheimer    type with AD neuropathology.
