Advances in brain imaging technology in the past five years have contributed greatly to the understanding of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we review recent research related to amyloid imaging, new methods for magnetic resonance imaging analyses, and statistical methods. We also review research that evaluates AD risk factors and brain imaging, in the context of AD prediction and progression. We selected a variety of illustrative studies, describing how they advanced the field and are leading AD research in promising new directions.
在过去的五年中,脑成像技术的进步极大地促进了对阿尔茨海默病(AD)的理解。在这里,我们回顾了最近与淀粉样蛋白成像、磁共振成像分析新方法和统计方法相关的研究。我们还回顾了评估 AD 风险因素和脑成像的研究,以了解 AD 的预测和进展。我们选择了各种有代表性的研究,描述了它们如何推动该领域的发展,并引领 AD 研究朝着有前途的新方向发展。
