Note: AD, Alzheimer's disease; MCI, mild cognitive impairment; NC, normal control; ATR, anterior thalamic; CST, corticospinal tract; CCing, cingulum cingulate; CHippo, cingulum hippocampus; CC, corpus callosum; IFOF, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus; ILF, inferior longitudinal fasciculus; SLF, superior longitudinal fasciculus; UF, uncinated fasciculus; AF, arcuate fasciculus. R, right; A, difference in anterior part of the fiber; P, difference in posterior part of the fiber; M, difference in middle part of the fiber; T, difference in the temporal lobe part of the fiber; F, difference in the frontal lobe part of the fiber. FDR correction was used in comparison in mean FA with a p value<.05. FWE correction was used in point wised location changes with a p value<.05.
