Small changes in cortical microstructure on MR imaging could help identify individuals who might be vulnerable to developing Alzheimer’s disease, new research suggests.
Published in Biological Psychiatry: Cognitive Neuroscience and Neuroimaging, the new study builds on the authors’ prior research into the relationship between cortical microstructure alterations and the onset of cognitive impairment later in life. This latest research goes a step further by analyzing how the spatial patterns of these changes can predict and potentially prevent issues with memory and the development of AD specifically.
“We were interested in examining if changes in this measure over time are linked to memory changes, and how the spatial patterns of these changes can tell us about a person’s risk...
