Summary

This study measures whether the symptoms of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) can be successfully treated by (a) biofeedback training to increase brain blood flow, (b) biofeedback to increase the frequency of the brain's dominant brainwave rhythm, and (c) rhythmic stimulation to increase the brain's dominant brainwave frequency.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

QEEG-based Neurofeedback Training

EEG amplitude is measured and visual and auditory rewards are given when amplitude at specific locations is modified to meet preset threshholds.
