AI tool gives doctors personalized Alzheimer's treatment plans for dementia patients

Vik Chandra, CEO of uMETHOD, talked with Fox News Digital about how his company's AI tool, RestoreU, is helping physicians pinpoint better treatment plans for their dementia patients. More than six million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease -- and one in three seniors dies with the disease, according to statistics from the Alzheimer's Association. With so many different factors -- genetics, lifestyle and environment -- influencing a person's risk of developing Alzheimer's, many doctors are moving away from one-size-fits-all approaches and calling for more individualized treatments. It's a concept known as precision medicine. And it's what inspired a company called uMETHOD to create RestoreU, a tool that uses artificial intelligence to help physicians create personalized care plans for patients with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia.
