Lewy Body Dementia

Lewy body dementia (LBD, sometimes referred to as Lewy body disorder) is an umbrella term[1] that includes Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), two dementias characterized by abnormal deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein in the brain.[2][3][4]
