An Observational Longitudinal Cohort Study to Investigate Cortical Disarray Measurement in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of this study is to find out whether a new image analysis technique called Cortical Disarray Measurement (CDM) could be used to help better diagnose Alzheimer's disease. This study will see whether changes on CDM can be used to identify Alzheimer's disease from a group of people living with memory and thinking problems. The study will also explore how CDM relates to changes in memory or thinking over time.
