RAPID ALZHEIMER'S DETECTOR!

Screening tool catches disease in early stages

- 

A BREAKTHROUGH brain scan can detect early-stage Alzheimer’s disease with almost 100 percent accuracy — and the experts behind the screening tool hope it will see widespread use by 2025!

“Currently, no other simple and widely available methods can detect Alzheimer’s with this level of accuracy,” says Professor Eric Aboagye, who led the groundbreaking research at Imperial College London.

“Our new approach could identify early-stage patients for clinical trials of new drug treatments or lifestyle changes, which is currently very hard to do.”

Over 6 million Americans are battling the mind-robbing disease, but that number is expected to more than double by 2050!
