Description

Jianqiao Tian and co-authors searched for distinct patterns of white matter change in aging and Alzheimer disease in 2025. White matter harm from vessel and nerve disease can weaken thinking. The team guessed that more than one pattern of change exists and can be found from scan data.

They used a clustering method on diffusion scans from more than eleven hundred people in Mayo Clinic cohorts. Two scan measures captured fiber packing and free water in fifty-five regions. A subset of regions changed steadily with disease stage. Fiber loss clustered in the temporal lobe, while free water rose mainly in frontal and deep regions. Two stable patterns of progression emerged from the method.
