studied, only NODDI derived orientation dispersion index (ODI) showed significant increase in fornix (cres) of SCD subjects (Fig. 2). Other diffusion metrics such as DTI and q-space analysis were not significant (Table 1).Compared to DTI and q-space analysis, NODDI derived diffusion metrics appear more sensitive to WM changes in SCD in AD-relevant regions. In addition, the increase of dispersion index suggests the organization of WM fibers may deteriorate in these early stages whereas the axonal density (measured by NODDI intra-cellular volume fraction) remains stable. Conclusions:This initial study suggests that advanced diffusion imaging such as HYDI and NODDI may be more sensitive to early stage AD compared to classical DTI approaches.
