A large series of recent studies have documented the frequency of the slowing of the action in brain diseases, especially vascular and neurodegenerative diseases. In stroke, the predictive value of action slowing at the acute phase for predicting post-stroke functional outcome remains poorly investigated. In neurodegenerative diseases, the diagnostic relevance of the slowing at the prodromal stage remains unknown and this diagnostic requires new tests. Finally, in terms of anatomical determinants, few studies have studied the determinants of action slowing. The objectives of this project are to Determine the diagnostic and prognostic value of action slowing assessed with new quick tests in patients with acute stroke (Neurovascular Unit) and cognitive neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer Disease (AD), Lewy Body disease (LBD), Fronto Temporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), Cortico Basal Degeneration (CBD) and Progressive Supra Nuclear Palsy (PSNP)) and to define the lesion determinants with VBM and VLSM
