FIGURE 1.  Scatterplot of association between age and mean cortical DVR. With 2-group K-mean cluster analysis, 2 clusters of individuals were identified: one with higher 11C-PIB retention and another with lower 11C-PIB retention, as determined by mean cortical DVR.

FIGURE 2.  Longitudinal rCBF increases (red) and decreases (blue) over 8-y interval in group with high amyloid deposition, compared with group with low amyloid deposition. In lower row, differences in longitudinal rCBF changes are overlaid on selected axial images showing voxel-based differences in amyloid deposition between high– and low–11C-PIB groups.
