Frontal Assessment Battery

FAB is a battery of tests, consisting of six subtests, that takes about 10 minutes and is designed as a short bedside assessment of executive function.^[1][2]

FAB is useful in the differential diagnosis of neurological diseases^[3] including Parkinson's disease, corticobasal degeneration, frontotemporal dementias, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, progressive supranuclear palsy,^[2] and dementia with Lewy bodies.^[4]

FAB was developed by Dubois et al. in 2000 and became a widely used tool.^[2]
