  • Title: Dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease: cerebral glucose metabolism.
    Author: Polinsky RJ, Noble H, Di Chiro G, Nee LE, Feldman RG, Brown RT.
    Journal: J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry; 1987 Jun; 50(6):752-7. PubMed ID: 3497227.
    Abstract:
    Cerebral glucose metabolic rate (CMRGlu), measured by positron emission tomography, was bilaterally and symmetrically reduced in two patients with autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease. Supramarginal gyri and temporal lobes were most severely affected. An isolated reduction of CMRGlu in the left supramarginal gyrus was observed in one asymptomatic at-risk subject.
