Abstract
Neuropathological diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD) requires interpretation of tau morphology based on extensive brain sampling. Here we report subcortical tau burden is sufficient to distinguish PSP and CBD, regardless of the tau morphology. The tau pallido-claustral ratio is a promising diagnostic indicator for PSP and CBD.
