Non-invasive Brain Imaging Method to Detect Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and gets worse over time and accounts for 60% to 70% of cases of dementia. The scientists and engineers in Northwestern University have developed a non-invasive MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) probe.
