Medicine · Alzheimer’s Disease
Investigators report that a novel blood-based assay measuring phosphorylated tau 217 and amyloid beta ratios accurately identifies early-stage Alzheimer’s disease pathology. The test demonstrated strong concordance with PET imaging and cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers in a large multicenter cohort. For your work on clinical actionability, this assay represents a scalable, minimally invasive tool that could be integrated into routine diagnostics and correlated with imaging and cognitive data.
