Summary

This study aims to see if measuring brain stiffness with a special, non-invasive MRI scan can serve as a new sign, or biomarker, for Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will enroll 450 people, including those with Alzheimer's, mild memory problems, and healthy individuals, to compare their brain stiffness. The goal is to understand if this measurement can improve early and more sensitive diagnosis of the disease.
