New Eye-Tracking app could spot brain changes early
NCT ID NCT05212727
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to create a non-invasive eye-tracking software to detect cognitive changes in people with neurological disorders. Researchers tested 300 adults with simple cognitive tasks while tracking their eye movements. The data was used to train machine learning algorithms to identify signs of conditions like multiple sclerosis or dementia. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
