to that of AD. Compared with patiens with AD, the PIB-positive SVaD group exhibited more PIB retention in bilateral peri-rolandic area and mid-cerebellar peduncle, where there is known to be rarely involved in AD. Conclusions: PIB-positive SVaD had a similar but also different distribution of amyloid deposition in the cerebral cortex from AD. Small vessel disease associated with SVaD may alter the distribution of amyloid deposition in the cortex.
