[Abstract] Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered to be a precursor to Alzheimer's disease (AD), so early diagnosis and treatment of patients with MCI is important to prevent and delay the progression to various types of dementia. At present, there is no clear drug treatment can significantly delay or change the course of AD development. Diet as a major part of lifestyle, a large number of studies have confirmed that certain nutrients, dietary patterns are associated with cognitive function and brain morphology or function, and can reduce the risk of AD and the transition from MCI to AD. With the development of imaging technology, the relationship between dietary factors and imageology in patients with cognitive impairment and the changes of neuroimageology after dietary improvement have gradually become a research hotspot both at home and abroad. This article reviewed the recent advances in neuroimaging of dietary intervention in cognitive impairment in order to explore the neuroimaging mechanism of dietary intervention and its clinical application.
