New tests and drugs could help predict the likelihood of Alzheimer’s disease, and turn the tide of treating symptoms for millions of patients worldwide, according to a leading expert at Cleveland Clinic.

Dr Marwan Sabbagh, director of Cleveland Clinic’s Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas, United States, said: “While Alzheimer’s is widespread globally, it’s a very exciting time in the medical field with new and innovative treatments that can reduce symptoms. Physicians, specialists and medical researchers have a renewed sense of purpose in delivering innovations that can give back quality of life to patients, and deploy tests that can predict Alzheimer’s before it worsens.”
