NAU researchers test non-invasive blood method for early Alzheimer’s detection
Raportoinut AI AI:n luoma kuva Faktatarkistettu
Scientists at Northern Arizona University are developing a non-invasive blood test that could help detect Alzheimer’s disease before symptoms appear by examining how the brain uses glucose through tiny blood-borne microvesicles. Led by assistant professor Travis Gibbons and supported in part by the Arizona Alzheimer’s Association, the project aims to enable earlier diagnosis and intervention, similar to how doctors manage cardiovascular disease.
