TABLE 3.

Correlation between SUVRs referenced to brainstem from PET analyses and % plaque load, plaque count, and average plaque size as analyzed with Congo red–stained brain slices of the same animals.

	Plaque load	Plaque count	Plaque size
SUVR cx/bs	0.9012***	0.8666***	0.8100***
SUVR hip/bs	0.9424***	0.8637***	0.8257***
SUVR cb/bs	0.5853*	0.5982*	0.2266

Pearson correlation coefficient (r) is shown for each pairwise correlation.

Bs, brain stem; cb, cerebellum; cx, cortex; hip, hippocampus.

^*p < 0.05, ^***p < 0.0001.
