Meets clinical criteria for possible or probable Alzheimer's Disease
Has a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT) scan of the brain (completed within the past 5 years) taken during or subsequent to the onset of dementia to rule out other central nervous system (CNS) disease that could account for the dementia syndrome. If not available, a non-contrast brain MRI or non-contrast head CT must be done during screening.
