How can this AI-powered retinal analysis tool impact the early diagnosis and management of dementia?

Scottish researchers have developed an AI tool using retinal photographs to detect early signs of dementia, potentially diagnosing the disease before symptoms appear. This is based on analyzing almost a million eye scans, creating an algorithm assessing blood vessel health indicative of neurodegenerative diseases. Early diagnosis could significantly improve patient and family outcomes.
