Functional Neural Correlates of Semantic Fluency Task Performance in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease: An FDG-PET Study.

Total score (TS) of semantic verbal fluency test (SVFT) is generally used to interpret results, but it is ambiguous as to specific neural functions it reflects. Different SVFT strategy scores reflecting qualitative aspects are proposed to identify specific cognitive functions to overcome limitations of using the TS.
