Distinct spatiotemporal atrophy patterns in corticobasal syndrome are associated with different underlying pathologies.

By jointly modelling disease stage and subtype, we provide data-driven evidence for at least two distinct and longitudinally stable spatiotemporal subtypes of atrophy in CBS that are associated with different underlying pathologies. In the absence of sensitive and specific biomarkers, accurately subtyping and staging individuals with CBS at baseline has important implications for screening on entry into clinical trials, as well as for tracking disease progression.
