SCD subjective cognitive decline, N.A not available (As Aβ-negative, gray zone, and established Aβ pathology were defined regionally using cutoffs reported in Tables 2 and 3, there were not enough regional standardized uptake values (SUVRs) to calculate percent Aβ deposition per year in some regions), amyloid-beta, MRI magnetic resonance imaging, ROI region of interest, CL centiloid. p-values testing whether percent Aβ deposition per year is significantly larger than zero are given in parenthesis
