Imaging of Brain Amyloid Plaques in the Aging Population
Sponsor: Mayo Clinic
Summary
This is a prospective, open label, non-therapeutic, diagnostic imaging study. The purpose of this study is to utilize Pittsburgh Compound B positron emission imaging (PiB PET) to ascertain the relationship between change in amyloid burden over time, and concurrent change in clinical status.

Interventions
Pittsburgh Compound B (C-11 PiB)
Repeat these scans approximately every 24-30 months for up to 10 years in those with all three PETs or 20 years in those with only PiB PET and FDG PET. A second PiB PET, TAU PET and/or FDG PET may be administered within a year if needed to ensure a completed exam for analysis in the rare case of exam failure or data loss.
F-18 FDG
Repeat these scans approximately every 24-30 months for up to 10 years in those with all three PETs or 20 years in those with only PiB PET and FDG PET. A second PiB PET, TAU PET and/or FDG PET may be administered within a year if needed to ensure a completed exam for analysis in the rare case of exam failure or data loss.
Tau (18-F-AV-1451)
1. PIB PET scan, Tau PET scan and/or FDG PET scan 2. Repeat these scans approximately every 24-30 months for up to 10 years in those with all three PETs or 20 years in those with only PiB PET and FDG PET. A second PiB PET, TAU PET and/or FDG PET may be administered within a year if needed to ensure a completed exam for analysis in the rare case of exam failure or data loss. ECG will be performed on subjects who have not had previous ECG test at Mayo to rule out prolonged QT interval prior to PET TAU scan.
