An early sign of dementia has been uncovered

Researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center have revealed that thinning of the cortical gray matter may be an early sign of dementia. This is reported in an article published in the journal Alzheimer’s & Dementia.

Specialists analyzed data from magnetic resonance imaging, which was performed on 1,500 participants aged 70 to 74 years, who had already undergone MRI several years ago during previous medical examinations. People with and without dementia were compared to detect abnormal changes in the brain.
