Abstract

BACKGROUND: Currently, there is no objective, clinically available tool for the accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). There is a pressing need for a novel, minimally invasive, cost friendly, and easily accessible tool to diagnose AD, assess disease severity, and prognosticate course. Metabolomics is a promising tool for discovery of new, biologically, and clinically relevant biomarkers for AD detection and classification.
