Research discovered a unique and promising avenue for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD) earlier -- by analyzing AD biomarkers in blood -- so that the impacts of dementia can be reduced. The researchers applied inorganic analytical geochemistry techniques, originally developed for cosmochemistry -- for example, to study the formation and evolution of the Earth, the Moon, other planets and asteroid samples -- and adapted these highly sensitive techniques to search for early biomarkers of AD in h

Current MRI definitions of knee osteoarthritis aren't necessarily adequate for identifying which knees will develop disease in the future, researchers have found. A team led by Alison Chang of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago reported that baseline MR imaging showed structural joint changes that did not appear on x-ray imaging -- the go-to modality for detecting the condition -- but the modality's ability to predict whether the disease would progress wasn't strong.
