Summary

This study looks at whether people with Alzheimer's disease have lower levels of a natural chemical called NAD in their brains compared to healthy older adults. Researchers will use a special MRI scan to measure NAD in 20 volunteers aged 65 to 80. Participants will have two scans, eight months apart, to track changes over time.
