Applications of Amyloid Plaques and AI For Detection of Alzheimer's Disease

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized many fields of work, particularly the field of medicine. Notably, AI-powered algorithms can identify patterns in retinal scans that are too delicate for the human eye to render (Fabrizio, Termine, Caltagirone, et al., 2021). This new technology has led to groundbreaking methods in diagnosing diseases, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a progressive disease that starts with moderate memory loss that eventually progresses into a general inability for a patient to converse and respond to their surroundings.AD remains the most common form of dementia globally and is recognized by the World Health Organization as a “global public health priority” (Lane et al., 2017).
