About This Trial
This study aims to analyse, in vivo, the interplay between microglial activation and tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) using \[18F\]-DPA-714 and \[18F\]-Ro948 tracers by Position Emission Tomography (PET), and their consequences on synaptic density using \[11C\]-UCB-J, a recent PET radioligand.
By coupling advanced neuroimaging techniques in AD patients, while comparing them to controls, …
