Proposed Analysis: Oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) is a physiological biomarker reflecting the percentage of oxygen extracted from the blood supply, which is directly associated with cerebral oxygen metabolism. As for the current standards, PET with O tracers is the reference standard for the quantitative mapping of OEF. In contrast to this, with MRI acquisition, tissue cerebral oxygen consumption is estimated from the susceptibility difference between paramagnetic deoxy-heme in the vasculature and the tissue parenchyma. The analysis is primarily focused on hypoxic conditions in terms of OEF in Mild Cognitive Impairment patients (MCI)
