Summary:A method of diagnosing a likelihood of onset or progression of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) in a subject is provided. The method requires determining vascularization changes in different regions of the brain on the basis of a quantitative cerebral blood volume (qCBV) map of the subject's brain. The qCBV is obtained from one or more quantitative ultrashort time-to-echo contrast-enhanced (QUTE-CE) MRI images of the brain. A method of treating a subject for ADRD is provided. Diagnostic markers for onset and progression of Alzheimer's disease are also provided. 提供了一种诊断受试者的阿尔茨海默病和相关痴呆(ADRD病)发作或进展的可能性的方法。该方法要求根据受试者大脑的定量脑血容量(qCBV)图确定大脑不同区域的血管化变化。qCBV是从一幅或多幅脑部定量超短回波时间对比增强(QUTE-CE)MRI图像中获得的。提供了一种治疗ADRD病患者的方法。还提供了阿尔茨海默病发作和进展的诊断标志物。
