From: Tau PET imaging in neurodegenerative tauopathies—still a challenge

Hypothetical time course of pathological changes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), in which biomarkers for amyloid-β become abnormal [cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) amyloid-β1–42 preceding PET], followed by abnormal tau (CSF p-tau preceding PET), neurodegeneration, and cognitive decline.
