Summary
In this project, we will try to enhance the diagnostic potentials of amyloid PET in CAA by
combination of dynamic amyloid PET with MRI SWI and MR perfusion images. We will also try to
investigate the roles of CAA in patients with drug-related ICH and validate the accuracy of
clinical CAA diagnostic criteria. In addition, we will try to study the characteristics of
long-term progression of amyloid deposition in CAA patients. This project will enroll 100
patients with ICH, 30 patients with AD, and 30 control subjects. Each patient will receive
the above image studies, followed by data analysis and comparison.
