Clinical significance of amyloid imaging (PIB-PET) was investigated by comparison with psychological tests and biomarkers of CSF. The cut-off value of mean cortical value based on cerebellar cortex was 1.3, and co-efficient of variation was 5.22%. Although the PIB-PET negative patients were not rare in spite of the clinical diagnosis as Alzheimer disease, the cortical value was significantly correlated with biomarkers of CSF and apoE4, and PIB-PET imaging was a powerful tool for evaluation of Alzheimer disease. For the detection of amyloid accumulation increase, longer observation period would be required.
