Structural brain abnormalities associated with delusions in Alzheimer's disease are poorly understood. In addition, whether the neural substrate underlying the delusions develops before the onset of the delusions is unclear. In this study, we used a voxel-based morphometry approach to examine the existence of regional structural abnormalities at baseline in patients with Alzheimer's disease who did and who did not develop delusions.
