Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), which becomes associated with these structures in AD, could elevate the accuracy of AD diagnosis by focusing on BChE pathology in the cerebral cortex, a region of scant BChE activity in healthy brain %K Alzheimer's disease %K Butyrylcholinesterase %K Acetylcholinesterase %K Single-photon emission computed tomography %K Molecular imaging %K Neuroimaging %K 123Iodine %K Alzheimer mouse model with 5 familial mutations %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5651425/
