Researchers have used MRI to detect deterioration of white matter tracts in the brains of older adults at high risk for Alzheimer's disease. Data suggest that changes in white matter connections may be among the earliest brain changes in Alzheimer's disease, which may prove important for early detection by noninvasive imaging.
