Blood flow is reduced in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, before symptoms appear, a finding that could help develop future prevention strategies, according to a multilateral collaboration led by the BBRC.
A multilateral collaboration led by the Barcelona Beta Brain Research Centre (BBRC), a research centre of the Pascual Maragall Foundation, has measured the reduction in cerebral blood flow in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease using a new magnetic resonance imaging sequence. … + read more
