Stanford study finds Alzheimer’s warning signs years before memory loss

Brain scans could help identify vulnerability while memory and thinking skills still appear normal

Stanford Medicine researchers identified brain activity patterns associated with Alzheimer’s risk years before memory problems appear.

In more than 1,300 cognitively healthy adults, the patterns helped predict later cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s diagnoses.

The experimental scoring system is not a diagnostic test, and researchers have not established whether changing these patterns can prevent the disease.

A new Stanford Medicine-led study suggests that patterns of brain...
