AI detects Parkinson's disease pre-symptoms with 100% accuracy

Inquirer.net June 20, 2024, 07:00 AM UTC

Summary: Researchers from University College London and University Medical Center Goettingen have developed an AI that can detect Parkinson's disease before symptoms appear. The AI analyzes blood samples for specific biomarkers related to the disease, achieving 100% accuracy in identifying the condition. By detecting these biomarkers early, potential patients can receive drug therapies sooner, potentially slowing down or preventing disease progression. The goal is to simplify the blood test for even earlier detection.
