Real-word application of the AT(N) classification and disease-modifying treatment eligibility in a hospital-based cohort.

The AT(N) classification is applicable in a real-world clinical setting. The classification system provided insights into clinical management and treatment strategies. Low cognitive performance and specific regional FDG-PET hypometabolism at diagnosis are highly suggestive for A + T + or A - T + profiles. This work provides also a realistic picture of the proportion of AD patients eligible for disease modifying treatments emphasizing the need for early detection.
