We applied neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging (NODDI) to estimate the microstructural changes due to tau pathology in the TG4510 (TG) animal model of Alzheimers disease (AD). The mouse model overexpresses a mutant human tau (P301L) resulting in intercellular tauopathies largely restricted to the hippocampus, cortex, olfactory bulb, and striatum. NODDI metrics discriminated between the wild type (WT) and TG is distinct regions of the brain associated with pathology.
