Alzheimer's disease cured in mice with ultrasound technology - GeekSnack

Alzheimer's disease cured in mice with ultrasound technology - GeekSnack: Alzheimer’s disease affects 50 million people worldwide. By definition it is the most common form of dementia, which causes memory loss, problems with thinking and behavior. Symptoms develop slowly and get worse as the patient gets older. Majority of people with Alzheimer’s are 65 and older, yet it can develop from the earlier age of 40s or 50s. In the initial stages people start losing their memory, and as it progresses individuals lose their ability to perform daily tasks, not being able to communicate or remember anything about their surroundings.
