Association of deposition of tau and amyloid‐β proteins with structural connectivity changes in cognitively normal older adults and Alzheimer’s disease spectrum patients

Introduction Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by accumulation of extracellular amyloid‐β and intracellular tau neurofibrillary tangles. The recent advent of tau positron emission tomography (PET) has enabled in vivo assessment of tau pathology. The aim of this study was to explore whether tau deposition influences the structural connectivity in amyloid‐negative and amyloid‐positive groups, and further explore the difference between the groups.
