This paper retrospectively diagnosed by head CT examination of 145 patients with brain atrophy in elderly patients with clinical information for diagnosis senile cerebral atrophy clinical evidence. 1 Materials and Methods 1.1 General information collected from December 2007 to December 2009 to do the head CT examination in patients with 279 cases, of which 145 patients with brain atrophy, male 104 cases, 41 cases of women aged 50 to 86 (mean 69) years of age. 1.2 145 cases of clinical manifestations in patients with memory loss and brain atrophy in 103 cases, accounting for 71.0%; 87 cases of numbness, accounting for 60.0%; dizziness 64 patients, 44.1%; conscious awareness of changes in 49 cases, accounting for 33.8%; 19 cases of abnormal behavior , accounting for 13.1%; hemiplegia in 6 cases, accounting for 4.1%. 1.3CT examination methods All patients were diagnosed by brain CT scan, used for the GE9800 CT whole body CT machine, GEHispeedDxi spiral CT machine, TCT-700S whole body CT, slice thickness 10 mm, pitch 10 mm, no enhanced scan. Diagnostic use visual access to the Combination plate and linear measurements. 1.4 count data using statistical methods 2 test. 2 Results 2.1 in patients with brain atrophy in different age groups, Table 1 shows the prevalence of cases the prevalence of cerebral atrophy increase with age, increased prevalence over the age of 70 (86.2% (125/145)) was significantly higher, and 70-year-old less (13.8% (20/145)) were significant differences (P lt;0.05).
