ObjecEves:
This
paper
aims
populaEonal
modeling
of
volumetric
degeneraEon
of
the
gray
maIer
due
to
Alzheimer's
disease,
to
establish
the
parameters
of
degeneraEon,
and
to
contrast
the
state
of
an
individual
with
respect
to
that
model.
In
this
way,
you
can
get
an
early
diagnosis
of
the
disease.
PopulaEonal
Model
Above:
Leh:
Different
evoluEons
of
parahippocampal
areas
in
controls
(red)
and
in
AD
paEents
(blue).
Right:
StaEsEcal
differences
of
gray
maIer
volume
loss
between
controls
and
AD.
Red
indicates
more
difference.
In
the
populaEonal
model,
the
regional
differences
between
healthy
and
AD
paEents
is
presented
(p-­‐value
of
the
gray
maIer
volume
difference)
in
the
table
aside.
