Abstract

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and is characterized by amyloid and tau pathology. Individuals with this AD pathology, but without clinical symptoms are referred to as preclinical AD. With a better and faster diagnosis of this group, the trajectory of AD may be better understood and followed. In this study, we use the augmented reality app ‘Altoida’ to try identifying the preclinical AD group remotely and more sensitively than with current techniques, as small cognitive impairment might be present in this group.
