Different ways to test for Alzheimer's There are different methods for Alzheimer's testing, which include cognitive tests, brain imaging, and examining the electrical activity of the brain. These methods provide the doctor with complete information about the patient's condition and play a role in the accurate and rapid diagnosis of this disease. Today, online tests and multiple-choice test questionnaires are also used to identify the early symptoms of this disorder.. Of course, the results of these tests are not always accurate, and you should ask a specialist in this field.... We will introduce you to the methods of diagnosing this disorder... ### EEG analysis; A non-invasive method for Alzheimer's testing According to research, the brain waves of people with amnesia have certain changes compared to healthy people. In the EEG analysis method, a specialist doctor records the brain waves by placing special electrodes on the scalp and examines possible changes. The symptoms in the Alzheimer's test with EEG are: - **Decreasing the power of alpha waves:** Alpha waves play a role in cognitive activities, and their decrease can be a sign of cognitive decline... - **Increasing theta and delta waves:** These waves are more active in deep sleep, but in patients with amnesia, they increase even when awake... - **Disturbance in the coordination of brain areas:** By analyzing the EEG, the doctor can understand the state of communication between different parts of the brain. Brain map advanced version It is an EEG that provides a more detailed analysis of the electrical activity of the brain using computer software. This method, by processing the recorded data, provides a color map of the brain activity that makes the Alzheimer's test easier for doctors. Disturbance... The QEEG test also provides the possibility of comparing the patient's data with databases of healthy people. ### cognitive and psychometric tests; One of the common techniques to detect forgetfulness Another category of common methods to evaluate the mental performance of patients suspected of forgetting are cognitive tests. These tests allow doctors to assess the extent of cognitive decline and overall brain function. Cognitive tests include questions and exercises that test the patient's memory, attention, language skills, and executive abilities. Some of the most important cognitive tests are: - **Mental State Examination** **(MMSE):** This test includes questions about memory, attention and language skills and is used as a quick screening tool to assess general cognitive function. - **Montreal Cognitive Performance Assessment** **(MoCA):** This test is designed to detect mild cognitive problems and evaluates memory, attention and executive abilities... Compared to the MMSE, the MoCA test is more accurate and detects all subtle changes. From checking the initial symptoms to advanced and effective tests
