Popis: Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) can represent a preclinical stage of Alzheimer’s disease. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) could aid an early diagnosis, yet only few monocentric DTI studies in SCD have been conducted, reporting heterogeneous results. We investigated microstructural changes in SCD in a larger, multicentric cohort. 271 participants with SCD, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) and healthy controls (CON) were included, recruited prospectively at nine centers of the observational DELCODE study. DTI was acquired using identical protocols. Using voxel-based analyses, we investigated fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD) and mode (MO) in the white matter (WM). Discrimination accuracy was determined by cross-validated elastic-net penalized regression. Center effects were explored using variance analyses. MO and FA were lower in SCD compared to CON in several anterior and posterior WM regions, including the anterior corona radiata, superior and inferior longitudinal fasciculus, cingulum and splenium of the corpus callosum (p
