  1. Data are mean (SD). BPND binding potential of [18F]FPEB in regions of interest, CN cognitively normal (n = 15), AD Alzheimer’s disease (n = 16). p values are for post hoc two-tailed, unpaired t tests (uncorrected for multiplicity) performed after a linear mixed model analysis of BPND in multiple regions (within-subject factor) between CN and AD diagnostic groups
