Abstract
Tau pathology is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The basal forebrain (BF) is a significant cholinergic projection site with cholinergic groups 1‐3 (Ch1‐3) projecting to the hippocampus, hypothalamus, and olfactory bulb, and group 4 (Ch4) projecting to the cortical mantle and amygdala. Braak stage 1 includes BF tau and recent literature suggests BF degeneration precedes medial temporal lobe (MTL) degeneration, thus implicating early involvement of the BF in AD. This study examines BF 18F‐flortaucipir (FTP) retention and gray matter (GM) volume, and their associations with MTL FTP retention and GM volume.
