Summary

This study looks at whether simple eye-tracking tests and brain scans can detect very early signs of Alzheimer's disease in 100 healthy older adults. Half of the participants carry a genetic risk factor (APOE4). The goal is to find biomarkers that could lead to earlier diagnosis, before memory loss begins.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple, non-invasive way to detect Alzheimer's risk years before memory problems start.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The tests are experimental and not yet proven for diagnosis.
