  1. Current Capacity for Diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease in Germany and Implications for Wait Times

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2024-01-01 Biomarkers

    In spite of having a well-resourced health system, Germany is projected to be unable to cope with the demand for biomarker-based AD diagnosis, if a disease-modifying AD treatment were introduced.

  2. Estimates of Current Capacity for Diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease in Sweden and the Need to Expand Specialist Numbers

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. The journal of prevention of Alzheimer's disease 2024-01-01 Cognitive tests and assessment

    Initial average waiting times for AD specialist appointments would be around 21 months in 2023 and remain around 55 months through 2042, as demand would continue to outstrip supply throughout the 20-year model horizon.

  3. Towards clinical application of tau PET tracers for diagnosing dementia due to Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2021-05-13 Brain scans and imaging

    The recent development of several tau positron emission tomography (PET) tracers represents a major milestone for the Alzheimer's disease (AD) field.

  4. Diagnosing Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease by the Detection of Abnormal Prion Protein in Patient Urine

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 66 out of 100. JAMA neurology 2016-12-01 Biomarkers

    We determined 40% of sCJD urine sample results as positive.
