Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The anterior medial temporal lobe (MTL), including the entorhinal cortex (ERC) and Brodmann area 35 (BA35), is among the earliest cortical sites of tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet conventional image segmentation methods poorly capture these regions.
METHODS: We applied an automated segmentation approach using an extended Automatic Segmentation of Hippocampal Subfields (ASHS) atlas, including anterior MTL subregions, in 448 Pennsylvania Alzheimer's Disease Research Center participants with magnetic resonance imaging, tau positron emission tomography (PET) (n = 199), and/
RESULTS: Tau‐PET showed an anterior–posterior gradient, with highest uptake in BA35, ERC, and anterior hippocampus. Increased MTL tau‐PET uptake and plasma p‐tau217 were associated with cortical thinning localized to BA35 and ERC, even in cognitively unimpaired Aβ‐positive individuals.
CONCLUSIONS: Anterior MTL subregions, especially BA35, show early vulnerability to tau‐related neurodegeneration. Extended anterior MTL parcellation improves localization of early tau‐associated structural changes and may facilitate biological staging in preclinical AD.

Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 1 repository of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 102 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- no match between paragraphs and code yet;
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
Data
No dataset and no data link were found in the paper.
