Parkinson disease (PD) is defined by the accumulation of misfolded α‐synuclein (α‐syn) in Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. It affects multiple cortical and subcortical neuronal populations. The majority of people with PD develop dementia, which is associated with Lewy bodies in neocortex and referred to as Lewy body dementia (LBD). Other neuropathologic changes, including amyloid β (Aβ) and tau accumulation, occur in some LBD cases. We sought to quantify α‐syn, Aβ, and tau accumulation in neocortical, limbic, and basal ganglia regions.
