| Abstract | From my congress chair lecture I gave at the 47th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Neuropsychological Society on September 7, 2023, I summarized my medical and research activities on idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), which began with neuropsychology. Among them, I introduced our research on cognitive impairment and apathy in patients with iNPH. I also described my current work with a number of neuropsychological experts to clarify the relationship between behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) and the results of neuroimaging and blood biomarker tests, and to examine the relationship between the results of these tests and the effects of non-pharmacological measures on BPSDs. |
