3. Discriminate between clinical phenotypes based on:
a) Upper and lower motor neuron involvement e.g. PMA and PLS
b) Patterns of regional involvement e.g. flail arm/leg, PBP
c) Cognitive involvement i.e. ALS-MCI versus ALS-FTD
d) Extremes of survival i.e. ‘aggressive’ (1-2 year survival from symptom onset) versus ‘slow’ (5-10 year) course

4. Able to predict regional involvement and the pattern of spread in advance:
