Here, we present an autopsy-confirmed case of CBD presenting with FBS who underwent positron emission tomography (PET) with SP 18 sp F-THK5351, visualizing the predominant lesion of the frontal lobes associated with the clinical phenotype. Conventional morphological and functional imaging modalities using brain MRI and SP 18 sp F-FDG PET imaging showed both atrophy and hypometabolism with right-sided predominance, respectively. Dear Sirs, Clinical phenotypes of corticobasal degeneration (CBD) vary and are typically presented with four phenotypes: corticobasal syndrome (CBS), frontal behavioral-spatial syndrome (FBS), nonfluent/agrammatic variant of primary progressive aphasia, and progressive supranuclear palsy syndrome [[1]].
