It is a wasting away of the brain.
In cases of Alzheimer's victims, autopsies have actually shown the brain weighs less than in unaffected individuals.
when the brain gets damaged the nerves in it becomes nonfunctional due to which there is low visual simulation,and the person behaves as if he can see but its only the partial view that he is watching not full visualization

What is cortical and central cerebral atrophy?
Ischemic Demyelination Sturge webers Hemiatrophy
What does prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci mean?
It's a sign of (severe) cerebral atrophy. It's being seen on CT or/and MRI scans of the brain. Generalized sulcal prominence diffusely is consistent with diffuse brain atrophy.
What is the treatment for cortical atrophy of the brain?
There is no treatment for cortical atrophy of the brain; just support and nursing care.
Is cerebral atrophy fatal?
Yes, in most cases cerebral atrophy is fatal. When the cerebral atrophy spreads to all of the brain, there is no chance for the person to live.
What is the end result of having cortical atrophy?
Cerebral atrophy is the loss of neurons from the brain and the connections between them. It can be widespread leading to shrinkage of the whole brain or focal at one point. It can occur due to several reasons: age, Alzheimer's disease, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, ...etc.When the brain tissue shrinks.
How do you control the mild diffuse cortical atrophy?
the power of love
What is mild frontoparietal cortical atrophy?
This refers to atrophy (i.e., loss of cells) in the frontal and parietal regions of the brain.
What does moderate generalized volume loss with prominence of the ventricles and cerebral cortical sulci mean?
The cerebral does moderate generalized volume loss with prominence of the ventricles and cerebral cortical sulci. It refers to the brain volume loss.
What is mild central cerebral atrophy?
it is a condition or a disease
What is cortical disruption?
Diffused means over a wide area or not localized.Cortical relates to the cerebral cortex.Dysfunction means not functioning properly.Diffused cortical dysfunction is the cerebral cortex not working properly over a non-localized section of the brain.
Damage to this cerebral lobe causes cortical deafness?
Temporal lobe
What condition is characterized by cortical atrophy and loss of neurons in the parietal and temporal lobes?
Alzheimer's disease.
