Los Angeles Brain Health Project memory diagnosis
and NeuroAge calculation
The NeuroAge research program analyzes an individual’s risk factors for memory loss with aging. This research relies on advanced Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms to analyze hundreds of datapoints from over 4500 patients to determine factors that may improve treatment and diagnosis of memory loss and cognitive decline in patients.
​
Cognitive testing, advanced MRI analysis, laboratory testing, and other neurological testing is employed to generate a risk profile, shown above, and an estimated brain age on the basis of this testing.
