MRI scans show structural brain changes in people at Alzheimer`s risk: "A new study by neuroscientists at Rush University Medical Center suggest that people at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease exhibit a specific structural change in the brain that can be visualized by brain imaging.
The findings may help identify those who would most benefit from early intervention.
'One of the main challenges in the field of Alzheimer's disease is identifying individuals at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease so that therapeutic interventions developed in the future can be given at the earliest stage before symptoms begin to appear,' said Sarah George, a graduate student who co-authored the study with Leyla deToledo-Morrell, director of the graduate program in neuroscience at Rush University Medical Center and professor of neurological sciences at the Graduate College of Rush University"
