Systems and methods for evaluating and analyzing the failure type dementia and dementia

摘要

Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for analyzing and assessing dementia and dementia-type disorders by integrating the use of electroencephalography (EEG), neuropsychological or cognitive testing data, and cardiovascular risk factor data. Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for early detection of dementia, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VAD), mixed dementia (AD and VAD), MCI, and other dementia-type disorders. Embodiments of the invention can provide some or all of the following improvements over conventional systems and methods, including: (1) Increased sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy; (2) Detection of AD, VAD and mixed dementia; and (3) Accurate detection of mild dementia and some cases of mild cognitive impairment in addition to the detection of moderate to severe dementia.
