Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the performance characteristics of a novel \[18F\] amyloid detection ligand (18F\]-AV-45) with respect to its ability to distinguish patients with clinically-diagnosed probable Alzheimer's disease from cognitively normal elderly subjects and to independently compare its diagnostic performance characteristics with the ability of \[11C\]PIB to correctly categorize the same subjects.

SPECIFIC HYPOTHESES

1. Individuals with a clinical diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease will have increased brain retention of \[18F\]-AV-45 compared to cognitively normal elderly individuals.
2. There will be no clinically meaningful difference in the amyloid retention performance characteristics of \[18F\]-AV-45 and \[l1C\]PIB.
Detailed Description: 15 patients with a clinical diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease and 15 cognitively normal elderly control subjects will receive both \[18F\]-AV-45 and \[11C\]PIB to compare the diagnostic performance characteristics of each amyloid ligand to distinguish AD from normal subjects. In addition to clinical diagnostic category, ligand retention will be evaluated with respect to measures of symptom severity and cerebrospinal fluid levels of amyloid and tau.
