About This Trial
The current protocol is to determine the biodistribution, metabolism, excretion and brain uptake of 18F-JSS20-183A. The goal of this radiotracer is to quantify 4Repeat Tau (4Rtau) protein that is abnormally deposited in the brain of people with a class of neurodegenerative diseases called tauopathies, such as Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS), syndromes of genetic F…
