18F-MK6240 longitudinal scans in four former NFL players. A Each row shows longitudinal data from a single participant. Scans shown depict 70-90SUVr, referenced against eroded white matter and overlaid on native space MRIs. Image slices on the left show the baseline visit, while scans on the right depict a follow-up visit. Time to follow up for each scan is described for each subject below its corresponding axial cut. “Case 1” subject corresponds to the “NFL 1” shown in Fig. 2. B Each subplot shows the distribution of mean SUVr values in regions-of-interest visually read as having on-target uptake for 4 former NFL players with longitudinal tau scans. Scatter points represent each individual participant scans, and the line connects a subject on its baseline and follow up visit
