Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Efficient prediction of the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease (AD) is important for the early intervention and management of AD. The aim of our study was to develop a longitudinal structural magnetic resonance imaging-based prediction system for MCI progression.
