Study Summary

The study hypothesizes that donepezil will have a positive impact on brain blood flow deficits in subjects with memory deficits and/or mild dementia and that improvements in brain blood flow will be accompanied by improvements in memory.

Primary Outcome

Posterior cingulate cortex perfusion was measured by arterial spin labeling (ASL). ASL is a completely noninvasive magnetic resonance method to measure regional cerebral perfusion. Results are reported for average relative perfusion rate. Average relative perfusion rate is defined as the average absolute perfusion rate divided by the whole brain absolute perfusion rate at the same time point. Average absolute perfusion rate is the average of left absolute perfusion rate and right absolute perfus
