A new artificial intelligence and deep learning technology may be able to detect early Alzheimer's with a near perfect accuracy rate.
A team from the Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) in Lithuania built the analyzation method that they believe has over 99 percent accuracy.
The method also operates much faster than a person can at analyzing and recognizing signs of the condition.
If as good as advertised, the AI-powered method would change the way Alzheimer's is diagnosed and could help physicians detect it earlier and more accurately - allowing for potential treatment to start earlier as well.
