Hi all. In the report of my last MRI there was a comment that said "moderate frontal lobe atrophy". I've googled this and the results are scary. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks!

I looked it up but couldn't find much on it. Is it the same as Pick's disease? What did your Doctor say?

The neurologist that ordered the MRI didnt' say anything. He was checking me for lesions/MS. The report stated "no lesions...However, moderate frontal parietal atrophy is noted". I asked my GP when he was reading the report and he is the one that told me that it meant the front lobe of my brain was dying. The neurologist is also the same one that has known for years that I had a pituatary tumor and hadn't told me that until now.
