Fig. 2: Examples of tau PET images.

From: Distinct amyloid and tau PET signatures are associated with diverging clinical and imaging trajectories in patients with amnestic syndrome of the hippocampal type

Fig. 2

Individual tau PET SUVr images (coronal sections) in patient SNAP 5 A, in patient SNAP 6, who has increased tau radiopharmaceutical uptake in the entorhinal cortices and amygdala with negative amyloid PET (B), and in patient AD 9 (C) at baseline (top row) and after 2 years (bottom row). Note the off-target binding of the tracer in the basal ganglia in all patients. Projection of the mean cortical [18F]-Flortaucipir SUVr on the 3D MRI MNI template in the SNAP group D and the AD group E (mean images were obtained after normalisation of individual images to the MNI template). Lateral views of the right and left hemispheres are shown.
