FDG-PET hypermetabolism is associated with higher tau-PET in mild cognitive impairment at low amyloid-PET levels

Abstract Background FDG-PET hypermetabolism can be observed in mild cognitive impairment (MCI), but the link to primary pathologies of Alzheimer’s diseases (AD) including amyloid and tau is unclear. Methods Using voxel-based regression, we assessed local interactions between amyloid- and tau-PET on...
