Diagnosing Alzheimer's Disease

A standard medical workup for Alzheimer's disease often includes structural imaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These tests are primarily used to rule out other conditions. Your doctor may use brain imaging tools to determine if you have high levels of beta-amyloid. Normal levels would suggest Alzheimer’s is not the cause of dementia.
Imaging technologies have revolutionized our understanding of the structure and function of the living brain.
