Alzheimer disease(AD), amnestic mild cognitive impairment(MCI),and healthy control(HC).
We investigated the difference in cognitive abilities and hippocampus volume (HV).
Hippocampus volume of AD and MCI subjects was relatively smaller than HC.
There were positive correlations between Boston naming test (BNT) and HV.
The BNT accurately differentiated the three groups by having the highest level of discrimination.
