High amyloid levels on PET may indicate early Alzheimer's
By Kate Madden Yee
Elevated levels of amyloid on PET scans of the brain have been associated with an increased risk for Alzheimer's disease. But a study published June 13 in the Journal of the American Medical Association suggests that higher levels of amyloid could actually be the first preclinical sign of the illness.
