Study Summary

This study is designed to test the relationship between ante-mortem flortaucipir Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging and tau neurofibrillary pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), as measured at autopsy.

Primary Outcome

Sensitivity and specificity of 5 independent readers' interpretations of ante-mortem flortaucipir PET imaging for detection of a pattern of flortaucipir neocortical uptake that corresponds to neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) Score of B3 (Hyman et al., 2012; Montine et al., 2012). NFT B scores range from B0 (Braak Stage 0; no NFTs in the brain) to B3 (Braak Stage V/VI; widespread NFTs in the brain). Sensitivity and specificity are percentages that can range from 0 to 100%. The hypothesis tested was
