Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping, QSM (from 7T MRI data) to hippocampal subfield volume loss at 1 year

    Relationship between QSM at recruitment and to hippocampal subfield volume (QSM and hippocampal subfield volume are obtained from 7T MRI Susceptibility Weighted and T1 Weighted images)

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • cross-sectional and longitudinal changes in QSM in the hippocampal subfields

    one year

  • neuropsychological measures in relation to QSM and volume loss in hippocampal subfields

    one year

Study Arms (2)

Alzheimer's disease

Patients with Early Onset Alzheimer's disease (with known cerebrospinal fluid Amyloid/tau status) during prodromal or mild phase will have MRI of the brain at 7T, neurocognitive assessments, and blood test to check APOe status. Repeat neuroimaging and neurocognitive tests after one year.

Other: MRI at 7T

Control group

Age and gender matched individuals with normal cognition will have MRI of the brain at 7T, neurocognitive assessments and blood test to check APOe status. Repeat neuroimaging, neurocognitive tests after one year.

Other: MRI at 7T
