   Abstract : The pathology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterised by the misfolding and aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) into extracellular plaques and aggregation of tau into intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. Recent advances in molecular imaging have allowed the development of positron emission tomography (PET) tracers for the in vivo detection of Aβ plaques while current efforts focus on the evaluation of recently proposed tracers targeting tau pathology.
