Metrics details
Using routinely collected multimodal clinical data, we developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model to identify dementia and determine factors causing it, including mixed dementias and Alzheimer’s disease. The model’s predictions were confirmed with biomarker evidence and neuropathological findings, and we show that the AI model, when used in conjunction with neurologist assessments, outperformed neurologist assessments alone.
