Intelligent Digital Tools for Screening of Brain Connectivity and Dementia Risk Estimation in People Affected by Mild Cognitive Impairment

Sponsor: Oslo University Hospital

Summary

Every three seconds someone in the world develops dementia. There are over 50 million people worldwide living with dementia and by 2030 this figure is expected to reach 82 million. Besides time-consuming patient investigations with low discriminative power for dementia risk, current treatment options focus on late symptom management. By screening brain connectivity and dementia risk estimation in people affected by mild cognitive impairment, the European Union (EU) funded AI-Mind project will open the door to extending the 'dementia-free' period by offering proper diagnosis and early intervention. AI-Mind will develop two artificial intelligence-based digital tools that will identify dysfunctional brain networks and assess dementia risk. Personalised patient reports will be generated, potentially opening new windows for intervention possibilities.
