Excerpt

It has long been a goal of clinicians working with Alzheimer’s disease to be able to image the pathology of the disease: now that objective is close to being realized, it is worth considering what the limitations of in vivo amyloid imaging are likely to be in respect of both treatment monitoring and diagnosis. …
