INTRODUCTION: Alzheimer's disease is a chronic brain disease that includes memory and language disorders. This disease, which is considered the most common cause of dementia worldwide, accounts for 60-80% of all dementia cases. Recent studies suggest that the cerebellum may play a role in cognitive functions as well as motor functions.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was conducted on 40 Alzheimer's patients and 40 healthy individuals. In our study, volumetric evaluation of the cerebellum was performed.
RESULTS: As expected, significant differences were found in cerebellar volume reduction in AD patients compared to healthy controls. Significant volume increase was observed in some regions of the cerebellum in Alzheimer's patients compared to healthy individuals.
CONCLUSION: The findings supported the role of the cerebellum in cognitive functions. Volume reductions may assist clinicians in making an early diagnosis of AD.
