Exclusion Criteria:
* Has any condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, could increase risk to the participant, limit the participant's ability to tolerate the research procedures, or interfere with the collection/analysis of the data (e.g., participants with severe chronic back pain might not be able to lie still during the scanning procedures);
* Has hypersensitivity to either AV-1451 or PIB or any of its excipients;
* Contraindications to PET, CT or MRI (e.g. electronic medical devices, inability to lie still for extended periods) that make it unsafe for the individual to participate;
* Severe claustrophobia;
* Currently pregnant or breast-feeding. Women must agree to avoid becoming pregnant and must agree to refrain from sexual activity or to use reliable contraceptive methods for 24 hours following administration of Flortaucipir injection;

* Must not participate in another drug or device study prior to the end of this study participation;
* Current or recent (within 12 months prior to screening) participation in research studies involving radioactive agents such that the total research-related radiation dose to the participant in any given year would exceed the limits set forth in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 21 Section 361.1.
