Alzheimer Disease: Postmortem Neuropathologic Correlates of Antemortem1H MR Spectroscopy Metabolite Measurements1

Antemortem (1)H MR spectroscopy metabolite changes correlated with AD-type pathology seen at autopsy. The study findings validated (1)H MR spectroscopy metabolite measurements against the neuropathologic criteria for AD, and when combined with prior longitudinal (1)H MR spectroscopy findings, indicate that these measurements could be used as biomarkers for disease progression in clinical trials.
