Applications of Neuroimaging to Disease-Modification Trials in Alzheimer’s Disease by Adam S. Fleisher, Michael Donohue, Kewei Chen, James B. Brewer, Paul S. Aisen, the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative

“…Since AD pathology is present in the brain many years prior to clinical manifestation, ideally we want to develop biomarkers of disease that identify abnormal brain structure or function even prior to cognitive decline. Magnetic resonance imaging, fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography, new amyloid imaging techniques, and spinal fluid markers of AD all have great potential to provide surrogate endpoint measures for AD pathology. …”
