Objectives: To determine in vivo cortical acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and cognitive effects in subjects with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD, n = 14) prior to and after 12 weeks of donepezil therapy.Methods: Cognitive and N-[C-11]methyl-piperidin-4-yl propionate ([C-11]PMP) AChE positron emission tomography (PET) assessments before and after donepezil therapy.Results: Analysis of the PET data revealed mean (temporal, parietal, and frontal) cortical donepezil induced AChE inhibition of 19.1% (SD 9.4%) (t= -7.9; p
