Introduction: We investigated amyloid-burden quantification in a mixed memory clinic population.
Methods: [18 F]Florbetaben amyloid-PET (positron emission tomography) scans of 348 patients were...

Purpose: Glial activation is one of the earliest mechanisms to be altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) relates to reactive astrogliosis and can be measured in...

White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) have a heterogeneous aetiology, associated with both vascular risk factors and amyloidosis due to Alzheimer's disease. While spatial distribution of both amyloid...

Amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology is one of the earliest detectable brain changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. The overall load and spatial distribution of brain Aβ can be determined in vivo using...

Background and objectives: Currently, amyloid-β (Aβ) staging models assume a single spatial-temporal progression of amyloid accumulation. We assessed evidence for Aβ accumulation subtypes by applying...

Amyloid (Aβ) pathology is the earliest detectable pathophysiological event along the Alzheimer's continuum, which can be measured both in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and by Positron Emission...

Introduction: Harboring two copies of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε2 allele strongly protects against Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the effect of this genotype on gray matter (GM) volume in...
