Lewy body dementia (LBD, or Lewy body disorder) is an umbrella term that encompasses two similar dementias, both of which are characterized by abnormal deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein in the brain: The two conditions have similar features, may have similar causes, and can be viewed as part of a spectrum.
