NCT ID NCT06122415
First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated May 31, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study is testing whether new blood tests can accurately diagnose the cause of memory loss or dementia, potentially replacing the need for a spinal tap. Researchers will compare blood test results with standard spinal fluid tests in 1,200 people at a memory clinic. If successful, it could make diagnosis faster, cheaper, and much easier for patients.
