Conversion of Amyloid Positive and Negative MCI to AD over 3 Years: An 11C-PIB PET Study
Neurol 73:754-760, 744, Okello,A.,et al, 2009
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
PIB-positive subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are significantly more likely to convert to AD than PIB-negative patients, faster converters having higher PIB retention levels at baseline than slower converters. In vivo detection of amyloid deposition in MCI with PIB PET provides useful prognostic information.
