PURPOSE: Individuals with behavioral-variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) show changes in brain structure as assessed by MRI and brain function assessed by 18FDG-PET hypometabolism. However, current understanding of the spatial and temporal interplay between these measures remains limited.
METHODS: Here, we examined longitudinal atrophy and hypometabolism relationships in 15 bvFTD subjects with 2 to 4 follow-up MRI and PET scans (56 visits total). Subject-specific slopes of atrophy and hypometabolism over time were extracted across brain regions and correlated with baseline measures both locally, via Pearson correlations, and nonlocally, via sparse canonical correlation analyses (SCCA).
RESULTS: Notably, we identified a robust link between initial hypometabolism and subsequent cortical atrophy rate changes in bvFTD subjects. Network-level exploration unveiled alignment between baseline hypometabolism and ensuing atrophy rates in the dorsal attention, language, and default mode networks. SCCA identified 2 significant and highly localized components depicting the connection between baseline hypometabolism and atrophy slope over time. The first centered around bilateral orbitofrontal, frontopolar, and medial prefrontal lobes, whereas the second concentrated in the left temporal lobe and precuneus.
CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights 18FDG-PET as a dependable predictor of forthcoming atrophy in spatially adjacent brain regions for individuals with bvFTD.
