Combined volumetry and DTI in subcortical structures of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease patients.
Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate the hypothesis that multimodal MRI is able to detect the progressive disruption of volume and microstructure of subcortical structures in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (a-MCI) and mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) in comparison with healthy controls (CTRL). We combined volumetric and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) techniques in a cross-sectional study including 30 a-MCI, 30 AD patients, and 30 age-matched CTRL. We employed a fully automated model-based segmentation algorithm on 3 Tesla MRI anatomical images and accurate coregistration of DTI to anatomical images to extract regional values of DTI parameters. Both the hippocampi significantly and progressively decreased in volume from CTRL through MCI to AD. Both the thalami showed a progressive and significant decrease in volume from CTRL to AD. Mean diffusivity (MD) values increased progressively across the three groups in the bilateral hippocampus, amygdala, and in the right caudate. No differences in fractional anisotropy (FA) values were found. Two distinct but overlapping patterns of progression of structural (i.e., atrophy) and microstructural (i.e., MD increase) damage were observed. Particularly, the pattern of atrophy was mirrored by the increasing value of the averaged MD, which provided a further indicator of subtle tissue disruption in the hippocampal structure in mild AD patients. Combining different MRI modalities can allow identifying sensitive indicators of the subtle pathogenic mechanisms that occur in subcortical areas of AD patients.

“Reduced FA and increased MD in hippocampus were reported in many of these human studies, probably attributed to increased extracellular space volume and neurodegeneration (Muller et al., 2007; Cherubini et al., 2010; Hong et al., 2013; Nowrangi et al., 2013).”

“From the increasing evidences that cognitive dysfunction could be related to subcortical structures in AD([14,38]) and postural instability,([34,35,37]) we hypothesized the role of subcortical gray matter on postural instability via connection to the cortex or hippocampus, especially in AD.”

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.
