“If we are able to do a better job of diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease, then hopefully we’ll be able to treat this population early on before full blown dementia takes place,” said Cai. “This is similar to cancer or cardiovascular therapies. The earlier we find the disease, the better the outcome will be.”
