With modern population growth and an increase in the average lifespan, more patients are becoming afflicted with neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia and Alzheimer's. Patients with a history of epilepsy, drug abuse, and mental health disorders...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is currently diagnosed using a mixture of psychological tests and clinical observations. However, these diagnoses are not perfect, and additional diagnostic tools (e.g., MRI) can help improve our understanding of AD as well a...
Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease plays a pivotal role in patient care and clinical trials. In this study, we have developed a new approach based on 3D deep convolutional neural networks to accurately differentiate mild Alzheimer's disease demen...
BACKGROUND: There is no simple model to screen for Alzheimer's disease, partly because the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease itself is complex-typically involving expensive and sometimes invasive tests not commonly available outside highly specialised...
. Neuroimaging uncovers important information about disease in the brain. Yet in Alzheimer's disease (AD), there remains a clear clinical need for reliable tools to extract diagnoses from neuroimages. Significant work has been done to develop deep le...
Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) have an increased risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Early identification of underlying neurodegenerative processes is essential to provide treatment before the disease is well established in the brain. He...

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a new technology in magnetic resonance imaging, which allows us to observe the insightful structure of the human body in vivo and non-invasively. It identifies the microstructure of white matter (WM) connectivity by ...
In Alzheimer's disease, the molecular pathogenesis of the extracellular Aβ-amyloid (Aβ) instigation of intracellular tau accumulation is poorly understood. We employed a high-resolution PET scanner, with low detection thresholds, to examine the Aβ-ta...
Predictive modeling of drug-induced gene expressions is a powerful tool for phenotype-based compound screening and drug repurposing. State-of-the-art machine learning methods use a small number of fixed cell lines as a surrogate for predicting actual...
