First seen Jun 09, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 09, 2026

Summary

This study aimed to see if a new fMRI technique called fMRI-SAM could help detect Alzheimer's disease early. Researchers planned to compare brain activity in 25 people with Alzheimer's, 25 with mild memory problems (MCI), and 60 healthy adults. The goal was to find differences that might predict who will develop Alzheimer's later. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
