چکیده
17. Verwey NA, van der Flier WM, et al. “A worldwide multicentre comparison of assays for cerebral spinal fluid biomarkers in Alzheimer’s disease.” Ann Clin Biochem 209; 26:235-40 (E-published Apr. 2, 2009). Conclusion: While no single finding affords the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, the brain MRI pattern of atrophy in the mesial and lateral temporal, isthmus cingulate, and orbitofrontal areas provides 83% sensitivity and 93% specificity. In Alzheimer’s, CSF amyloid is decreased, while tau is increased. Pursuit of suitable blood markers continues. ■

The Participation of Three Brain Tissues in Alzheimer’s disease Diagnosis from Structural MRI
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive and irreversible disease which gradually makes patients unable to do their daily routines. Although the present treatments can not cure the disease completely, its early detection can reduce symptoms and enhance the patients’ life quality. In the current literature, using the grey matter (GM) tissue which is known as an appropriate biomarker is highly c...
متن کاملMultimodal Feature Extraction for the Diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's is a degenerative disease, where dementia symptoms slowly worsen over time. Brain cell connections, the cells themselves degenerate and die, slowly destroying memory and other mental functions. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), the early stage of Alzheimer’s (AD), is used for clinical trials. Different imaging techniques have been used to help diagnose the disease. A few of them are ...

Introduction. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease associated with dementia. Clinical neuroimaging such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is becoming increasingly important in the diagnostic workup of patients with suspected or definite dementia. Structural imaging is crucial in terms of excluding possible treatable causes of demen...

Purpose: In this study, the main goal was to determine the correlation between the thickness of cerebral cortex and the severity of cognitive disorder in Alzheimer's disease Materials and method: Twenty patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease with mean age of 72.95 year(14 women and 6 men) and Ten Cognitively normal (CN) subjects with mean age of 70.50 year( 7 women and 3 men) were include...
متن کاملAutomatic Alzheimer’s Disease Recognition from MRI Data Using Deep Learning Method
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), the most common form of dementia, is an incurable neurological condition that results in a progressive mental deterioration. Although definitive diagnosis of AD is difficult, in practice, AD diagnosis is largely based on clinical history and neuropsychological data including magnetic resource imaging (MRI). Increasing research has been reported on applying machine lear...
