Diagnostic Pathways for Alzheimer Disease: Optimizing Multidisciplinary Practices

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Alzheimer disease (AD) is associated with a significant and increasing burden for patients, their caregivers, and society as the population ages. This activity has been designed with differing educational pathways for specialists and nonspecialists to address the needs of their clinical practices, and will help clinicians identify and differentiate AD from normal aging and other neurocognitive disorders through optimal use of cognitive, imaging, and biomarker assessments to enable the earlier diagnosis of AD and allow for earlier intervention to improve patient outcomes.
