Indian scientists using artificial intelligence to predict early onset of Alzheimer's

New Delhi: Indian scientists are using artificial intelligence (AI) to develop a smart diagnostics system to predict the onset of Alzheimer's disease early. Professor Pravat Mandal and his group at the National Brain Research Centre (NBRC), and Neuroimaging and Neurospectroscopy Laboratory (NINS) are together working to develop a model to map metabolic patterns in different brain regions in healthy and pathological conditions. Alzheimer's disease is a chronic degenerative brain disorder. Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible progressive brain degenerative disorder. It manifests as cognitive deterioration and associated behavioral disturbances, leading to impairment of activities of daily living.
