Brief Summary: This study uses a special type of scan called a positron emission tomography (PET) scan to take pictures of the brain. During the PET scan, a special dye called 11C-PBR28 is injected into the body.

11C-PBR28 sticks to parts of the brain where there is inflammation. The purpose of this study is to see if 11C-PBR28 can detect inflammation in patients with Parkinson's disease dementia or dementia with Lewy bodies.

11C-PBR28 is considered a drug by the Food and Drug Administration. 11C-PBR28 is not a treatment for any disease. Rather, 11C-PBR28 can be used to measure inflammation in the brain.
Detailed Description: This study is being done to see if 11C-PBR28 could be useful in diffuse Lewy body disease. Diffuse Lewy Body Disease refers to subjects with either Parkinson's disease dementia or dementia with Lewy bodies.

The hypothesis is that 11C-PBR28 binding will be greater in patients with diffuse Lewy body disease than in controls, with largest differences in temporal and limbic regions of the brain.

Participants will have a medical history and examination. This will include questions about thinking and memory. Participants will have blood drawn for routine lab tests. Blood will also be tested for a special genetic test to make sure the 11C-PBR28 scan will work. A special genetic blood test will also be done to see if participants have genes that are associated with dementia with Lewy bodies or other causes of dementia. Participants will not receive the results of these special genetic tests. Participants will also have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain.

If a participant still meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria after these procedures are done, then the participant will have one PET scan using 11C-PBR28. This scan will take place at the Columbia University Medical Center Kreitchman PET Center. On the day of the PET scan you will have an intravenous (IV) catheter (tube) placed in the participant's arm. The participant will also have an arterial catheter placed in an artery of your wrist. Participant will be asked to lay down on a PET scanner. A CT scan will be taken of the participant's head. A small amount of 11C-PBR28 will be injected into the IV. A member of the study team will draw blood from the arterial catheter. The PET scan will last 90 minutes. The participant will be asked to lay still during the scan.

The amount of radiation from the 11C-PBR28 PET scan is up to 20 millicuries. Similar amounts of 11C-PBR28 have been given to over 100 human subjects in prior studies.
