  1. Basal forebrain atrophy correlates with amyloid β burden in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. NeuroImage. Clinical 2014-11-27 Brain scans and imaging

    The brains of patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD) have three classical pathological hallmarks: amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques, tau tangles, and neurodegeneration, including that of cholinergic neurons of the basal forebrain.

  2. Cholinergic basal forebrain atrophy predicts amyloid burden in Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Neurobiology of aging 2013-10-28 Brain scans and imaging

    We compared accuracy of hippocampus and basal forebrain cholinergic system (BFCS) atrophy to predict cortical amyloid burden in 179 cognitively normal subjects (CN), 269 subjects with early stages of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), 136 subjects with late stages of MCI, and 86 subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia retrieved from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative database.
