Widespread clinical use of PET and CSF has been hampered by high costs, reliance on expensive equipment and specially trained personnel, and perceived invasiveness.
“However, although safe, the widespread clinical use of PET and CSF has been hampered by high costs, reliance on expensive equipment and specially trained personnel and perceived invasiveness11.”
From Highly accurate blood test for Alzheimer's disease is similar or superior to clinical cerebrospinal fluid tests (2024) · cites this paper as [11]
In “Roles of molecular imaging, BBBM, and CSF biomarkers” (page not supplied), the paper says PET’s high cost and need for specialized equipment and personnel limit its clinical use. The same section says lumbar puncture requires specialized personnel and can be perceived as invasive. It does not present high cost or expensive equipment as barriers to CSF testing; instead, it says CSF biomarkers cost less than PET and are typically reimbursed. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe presence of Aβ pathology can be determined by PET or CSF assays measuring Aβ42/40, p-tau or total tau.
“The presence of Aβ pathology can be determined by positron emission tomography (PET), which visualizes Aβ deposition in the brain, or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) assays, which measure CSF levels of Aβ42 as a ratio with Aβ40, phosphorylated tau (p-tau) or total tau4,9–11.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
