Cellular Viscosity as a Marker for Alzheimer’s Disease Pathology: A Combined Multiparametric MR Spectroscopy and PET Study

This project investigates intracellular viscosity as a potential early marker of neurodegeneration and Alzheimer’s disease by combining PET imaging, blood-based biomarkers, and an innovative technique called magnetic resonance spectroscopic fingerprinting (MRSF), using data from a well-characterized cohort at NYU’s Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center.
