AI predicts Alzheimer's 7 years early with 70% accuracy

Decrypt — July 4, 2024, 05:00 AM UTC

Summary: An AI model can predict Alzheimer's disease up to seven years in advance with 70% accuracy, increasing to 80% the day before diagnosis. By incorporating demographic details, accuracy can reach 90%. The study used medical records of over 250,000 individuals, identifying early predictors like high cholesterol and osteoporosis. This early detection could revolutionize Alzheimer's treatment.
