The number of people living with dementia globally is forecast to nearly triple to to 153 million by 2050.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Dundee will examine CT and MRI scans of patients from Scotland captured over more than a decade, as part of a global research effort called NEURii. The team will use AI and machine learning to match the image data with linked health records to find patterns that could help doctors better determine a person’s risk of […]
