Top Magn Reson Imaging. 2021 Jun 1;30(3):167-172. doi: 10.1097/RMR.0000000000000271.

Abstract

Familiarity with the physiology of smell allows a deeper understanding of olfactory dysfunction in dementia and neurodegenerative disease. This manuscript reviews the characteristic clinical and advanced imaging findings in patients with neurodegenerative disorders presenting with olfactory dysfunction.
