This study will test if two flortaucipir PET scans up to 4 weeks apart in healthy volunteers, MCI and AD subjects provide the same results.

Test-Retest Reproducibility
Evaluate test-retest reproducibility of flortaucipir for brain imaging of tau in healthy volunteers and subjects with cognitive impairment. Standard uptake value ratios (SUVRs) for each scan, normalized to the cerebellar crus. A combination volume of interest (VOI) = weighted average of parietal, temporal, and occipital regions was used. The protocol pre-specified that test-retest endpoint was to be calculated for the combined group of healthy volunteers and cognitively impaired subjects
Time frame: 80-100 minutes postdose
