Figure 2. Pittsburgh Compound B Images and Insulin Resistance.

Figure 2

Amyloid uptake images in age- and sex-matched representative participants, who varied by the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR). Two representative sagittal PiB images are shown for a participant with low IR (HOMA-IR < 2) or high IR (HOMA-IR ≥ 2). The color bar depicts the Pittsburgh Compound B (PiB) Distribution Volume Ratio, a quantitative index of PiB uptake.
