Is it true that brain changes of Alzheimer's disease begin 10 to 20 years before memory symptoms appear?

Yes. One neuroscience source states that amyloid and tau accumulation in the brain begins 10-20 years before overt symptoms, and a second reports amyloid-beta accumulation about 20 years before dementia symptoms; a biomarker-timeline study estimates a presymptomatic phase of roughly 7-11 years.
