AbstractIntroductionComparison of tau (flortaucipir) positron emission tomography (FTP‐PET) to autopsy is important to demonstrate the relationship of FTP‐PET to neuropathologic findings.MethodsAutopsies were performed on 26 participants who had antemortem FTP‐PET. FTP‐PET standardized uptake value ratios (SUVRs) were compared to autopsy diagnoses and Braak tangle stage. Quantitative tau burden was compared to regional FTP‐PET signal.ResultsParticipants with Braak stages of IV or greater had elevated FTP‐PET signal. FTP‐PET was elevated in participants with Alzheimer's disease. An FTP‐PET SUVR cut point of 1.29 was determined to be optimal. Quantitative measurements of hippocampal and temporal lobe tau burden were highly correlated to FTP‐PET signal (rho's from 0.61 to 0.70, P ≤ .02).DiscussionElevated FTP‐PET reflects Braak IV or greater neuropathology. Participants with primary age‐related tauopathy and hippocampal sclerosis did not show elevated FTP‐PET signal. Secondary neuropathologic diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease neuropathologic change can lead to borderline elevated FTP‐PET signal.
