Hippocampal region from which percentage signal change was extracted in hypothesis driven analysis. Recruitment of a portion of the hippocampal formation during performance of this task is thought to occur, at least in part, because of the learning of new information. This activated portion of the hippocampal formation (as identified using the novel versus repeated contrast) was used as a functional region of interest for the present study to investigate whether hippocampal activation predicts cognitive decline. Left side of the brain is shown on the left of the image.
