Researchers at the Mayo Clinic believe AI is key to enabling earlier and faster diagnoses. Integrating AI with EEG tests can significantly enhance dementia identification.
The Mayo Clinic's AI tool, built in-house, analyzed complex brain waves to find six specific patterns indicative of Alzheimer's or Lewy body disease, improving diagnostic speed and accuracy.
Brain wave patterns change in patients with dementia or cognitive problems. Historically, EEGs were not routinely used for assessing Alzheimer's or dementia due to the lack of specialized analysis.
This AI system reduced EEG reading time by 50%, confirming that a wealth of 'hidden information' exists within EEG data that can improve clinical outcomes.
