Resumen	The Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB) is a brief, clinician-administered neuropsychological battery designed to assess frontal lobe function and executive abilities at the bedside. Developed by Dubois and colleagues at the Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris in 2000, the FAB consists of six subtests measuring conceptualization, mental flexibility, motor planning, inhibitory control, and verbal fluency. The FAB is particularly sensitive to frontotemporal dementia, Parkinson's disease with cognitive decline, and other conditions affecting prefrontal function.	The Mattis Dementia Rating Scale (DRS) is a comprehensive 36-item clinician-administered neuropsychological battery designed to assess and quantify cognitive decline in dementia. Developed by Sandra Mattis in 1988, the DRS measures five major cognitive domains—attention, initiation/perseveration, construction, conceptualization, and memory—and provides both a total score and subscale scores. The DRS is particularly valued in neurodegenerative disease research and clinical settings for its sensitivity to cognitive change over time and its utility in detecting cognitive impairment across the dementia spectrum.
