Brain imaging study for Alzheimer's disease
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses brain scans to understand Alzheimer's disease and related conditions that affect memory, language, or vision. It looks at how changes in the brain happen over time in people with these diagnoses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 years or older.
- You have a family member or friend who can provide information about your daily life.
- Your main language is English.
- You have been diagnosed with a type of Alzheimer's disease that affects memory, language, or vision, and your symptoms started slowly and got worse over time.
- You do not have other brain disorders like stroke, tumor, or certain types of dementia.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses brain imaging to understand changes in the brain during normal aging and early Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It may help researchers spot early brain changes and evaluate how well imaging measures those changes.
This extension study looks for predictors—measurable clues—linked to memory changes in older adults who feel their memory is worsening. You may be asked to have an amyloid PET scan, which can help researchers understand what might be driving memory concerns.
This study uses brain scans (PET) to look at changes in the brain that may be related to memory problems or Alzheimer's disease. It aims to improve understanding of the disease and may help develop better treatments.
This study uses MRI brain scans and memory tests to help detect early Alzheimer’s disease. It compares people with Alzheimer’s (diagnosed by a clinician) with people without memory problems to see which scan and test results stand out.
This study is looking for healthy volunteers to help detect the very earliest signs of Alzheimer's disease—before memory loss starts. You will have tests like memory checks, blood draws, brain scans, and a spinal tap to look for Alzheimer's-related changes.
This trial looks for signs of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain by using memory and thinking tests, and related study procedures. It may help researchers find better ways to identify Alzheimer’s-related changes earlier.
