Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will test if two AV-45 PET scans up to 4 weeks apart in AD subjects and healthy volunteers provide the same results. The study will also test two different AV-45 injection methods in a small subgroup of enrolled AD subjects (slow vs. fast bolus group).

AD Subjects

Two bolus IV injections followed by brain PET scan up to 4 weeks apart

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

florbetapir F 18

Intervention Type DRUG

IV injection, 370MBq (10mCi)

AD Subjects: Slow vs. Fast Bolus

Two bolus IV injections followed by a brain PET scan up to 4 weeks apart.

The first injection given as a rapid bolus (\< 5 second injection, with immediate flush). The second injection given as a slow bolus (approximately 20 to 30 second injection with a flush delayed by 10 seconds after dose administration).

Intervention Type DRUG

IV injection, 370MBq (10mCi)

Healthy controls

Healthy male or female subjects; 35-55 years old. Two bolus IV injections followed by brain PET scan up to 4 weeks apart
