Investigators developed the Dunedin Pace of Aging Calculated from NeuroImaging (DunedinPACNI) to estimate an individual’s pace of aging based on brain MRI features such as cortical thickness ...

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking tool that can measure how fast a person is aging and predict their future risk of chronic diseases like dementia using a single brain MRI scan.

A pioneering brain scanner, one of the first to be owned by an NHS trust in England, is being trialled in Kent to improve dementia diagnosis and mental health research. The low-field MRI scanner ...

Dementia is an umbrella term for a range of brain diseases that cause memory loss and other cognitive decline. More than 100 medical conditions can cause dementia.

Despite the incredible effort going into treating dementia, treatment becomes less effective the further along the disease is. “Drugs can't resurrect a dying brain,” Hariri said.

The condition is usually caused by cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), which damages the brain's small blood vessels—but researchers don't yet know the exact mechanism linking cSVD to dementia ...

The research involved 200 ex-professional rugby players aged 30-61 (median age, 44), all of whom had self-referred with brain health concerns but had no dementia diagnosis at baseline.
