Summary

To determine the level of association between the quantitative estimates of brain uptake of \[18F\]flutemetamol and the quantitative immunohistochemical and histochemistry estimates of amyloid levels in frontal lobe biopsy samples obtained from subjects during shunt placement for NPH.

Conditions

  • Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Interventions

DRUG

[18F]Flutemetamol

All subjects will receive an IV dose of \[18F\]flutemetamol (less than 10 mg flutemetamol). The nominal activity of a single administration of \[18F\]flutemetamol will be 185 MBq.
