Glucose Hypometabolism in Hippocampal Subdivisions in Alzheimer's Disease: A Pilot Study Using High-Resolution ¹⁸F-FDG PET and 7.0-T MRI.

CONCLUSIONS: It was possible to use high-resolution PET-MRI fusion images to identify hippocampus subdivisions and assess glucose metabolism in the subfields. Reductions in metabolic activity were found to vary along the hippocampal axis in early-stage AD patients. PMID: 29629524 [PubMed]
