ALZHEIMER'S BLOOD TEST COULD BRING HIGHLY ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS INTO EVERYDAY CLINICAL CARE
A blood-based biomarker test significantly improves Alzheimer's diagnosis accuracy in both primary and specialty care settings.
Primary care physicians achieve about 90% diagnostic accuracy, comparable to dementia specialists, after using the blood test results.
Physicians changed diagnoses in about one-third of patients and altered clinical management plans in over half of the cases after viewing the blood test results.
