An algorithm for dementia diagnosis
Changes in terminology are now necessary to acknowledge the language proposed by the academic community which has easy access to biomarkers, without disempowering clinicians (most of them) who lack easy access to the biomarkers. Good (but not excellent) level of specifying likelihood of amyloid being present, can likely be achieved with more accessible clinical markers. This approach should be pursued and replicated among diverse populations of patients around the world.
