Alzheimer's: 'Promising' blood test for early stage of disease A blood test could spot Alzheimer's disease at the earliest stage and years before symptoms appear, studies in the US and Sweden suggest.
The test looks for tiny amounts of a protein which is elevated in people with the illness.
Investigators found measuring this protein, p-tau217, could predict Alzheimer's dementia with 96% accuracy. BBC News
