Screening for Alzheimer’s disease by assessing memory impairment

Rev Infirm. 2021 Aug-Sep;70(273):41-43. doi: 10.1016/j.revinf.2021.06.012. Epub 2021 Jun 18.

ABSTRACT

The feeling of memory failure is the most frequently expressed discomfort with age. The difficulty is to distinguish between a memory complaint and a memory pathology. Alzheimer’s disease is diagnosed at the stage of dementia. Early detection and the prospect of treatments likely to act lead to an interest in its pre-dementia phase, which is known to precede the appearance of the dementia syndrome by several years.
