Imaging‐based Biological Staging for Alzheimer's Disease Prognosis

The integration of Aβ and tau PET imaging provides critical prognostic information in early disease stages, with neocortical tau deposition performing as a robust predictor of clinical progression. These findings reinforce the utility of imaging biomarkers for AD staging and prognosis, highlighting that the topography of tau tangle accumulation is a key factor in enhancing risk stratification of individuals with preclinical AD.

Abstract

The integration of Aβ and tau PET imaging provides critical prognostic information in early disease stages, with neocortical tau deposition performing as a robust predictor of clinical progression. These findings reinforce the utility of imaging biomarkers for AD staging and prognosis, highlighting that the topography of tau tangle accumulation is a key factor in enhancing risk stratification of individuals with preclinical AD.
