Understanding the natural course of beta-amyloid accumulation over time is important for tracking the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), prediction of outcomes as well as designing stage-specific clinical anti-amyloid drug trials. In this thesis, the spatial and temporal pattern of beta-amyloid accumulation as measured with positron emission tomography (PET) was investigated in subjects with preclinical and manifest sporadic and autosomal dominant AD. Overall, these results provide meaningful references for planning anti-amyloid clinical trials with PET as biomarker.
