Keywords:
Lewy Bodies, Demetia, DiagnosisAbstract
Daiagnosis of dementia, has been increased especially in the elderly. Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), which was formerly believed to have a low incidence, is currently found to be the second most common type of dementia, after Alzheimer's disease.

Also, to help physicians gain more confident on making diagnosis and encourage more awareness on carefully using management method.
