New UCLA Imaging Method Identifies People at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

UCLA News
UCLA researchers using innovative brain-scan technology have shown that the abnormal brain protein deposits that define Alzheimer's disease can be detected in mild cognitive impairment — a condition that increases the risk for developing Alzheimer's and affects 15 to 20 million Americans. The study will be published in the Dec. 21 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine.
