Plasma biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease: a field-test in a memory clinic

Aurélien Lathuilière, Sara Stampacchia

Background The key Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers are traditionally measured with techniques/exams that are either expensive (amyloid-positron emission tomography (PET) and tau-PET), invasive (cerebrospinal fluid A beta 42 and p-tau 181), or poorly sp ...
