What is corticobasal degeneration( CBD)?
2
Corticobasal degeneration, or CBD, is a rare, adult-onset, neurological disease that impacts movement, thinking, speech, and sensory perception. CBD is commonly referred to as an“ atypical parkinsonism disorder,” because some of its symptoms are similar to those of Parkinson’ s disease. CBD varies in the precise areas of the brain affected, which can cause a variety of symptoms, often making the disease difficult to diagnose.
