MRI findings key pathology markers of 4R-tauopathies

SEATTLE — MRI biomarkers were significantly associated with glial tau pathology and could aid in the diagnosis of certain neurodegenerative diseases, a presenter said at the 2022 American Academy of Neurology annual meeting.
“Progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration are the two most common sporadic forms [of four-repeat tauopathies]. They share overlapping pathological features, such as deposits of tau in both neurons and glia,” Arenn F.
