Arms & Interventions
MCI (Amyloid Positive)
Participants with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD who tested amyloid positive were observed for up to 36 months. No therapeutic investigational drug intended to treat AD was administered.
Intervention: Florbetapir F 18 PET Scan
Mild AD Dementia (Amyloid Positive)
Participants with mild AD dementia who tested amyloid positive were observed for up to 36 months. No therapeutic investigational drug intended to treat AD was administered.
Intervention: Florbetapir F 18 PET Scan
MCI (Amyloid Negative)
Participants with MCI who tested amyloid negative. These participants were not eligible to participate in the 36 month prospective portion of the study.
Intervention: Florbetapir F 18 PET Scan
Mild Dementia (Amyloid Negative)
Participants with mild dementia who tested amyloid negative. These participants were not eligible to participate in the 36 month prospective portion of the study.
Intervention: Florbetapir F 18 PET Scan
