Cerebral glucose metabolic prediction from amnestic mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s dementia: a meta-analysis

Abstract Brain 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has been utilized to monitor disease conversion from amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) to Alzheimer’s dementia (AD).
