Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Male or Female, any race
  • * Age ≥ 18 years
  • * Healthy volunteers or volunteers with Alzheimer's disease
  • * Has hypersensitivity to 18F-Fluselenamyl or any of its excipients ;
  • * Has hypersensitivity to 11C-PIB or any of its excipients ;
  • * Incapable of providing written informed consent or lacking a legally authorized representative (LAR) to provide informed consent ;
  • * Unwilling or unable to undergo PET scans tracer injections ;
  • * Unwilling or unable to undergo MRI (Aim 2 and Aim 3)
  • * Any condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, could increase the risk to the participant, limit the participant's ability to tolerate the research procedures, or interfere with the collection/analysis of the data (e.g., renal or liver failure, advanced cancer);
  • * Women who are currently pregnant or breast-feeding;
  • * Current or recent (within 12 months prior to screening) participation in research studies involving radioactive agents such that the total research-related radiation dose to the participant in any given year would exceed the limits set forth in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 21 Section 361.1.
