Health & Aging Brain Study: Health Disparities TAU Project

Completed

• Conditions: Brain Aging in Mexican Americans
• Interventions: Diagnostic Test: PET scan of the brain with Flortaucipir

• Registration Number: NCT04324541
• Lead Sponsor: Sid E. O'Bryant

Brief Summary

By doing this study we are trying to learn more about brain aging in Mexican Americans.

Participants will be asked to complete a screening visit to determine if it is safe to undergo a PET scan.

If eligible, participants will undergo a medical procedure that takes a picture of their brain. This procedure is called a PET scan of the brain.
