New blood biomarker may detect Alzheimer’s pathology more accurately
Scientists directly compared two leading pTau217 blood tests and found that a brain-derived version may detect Alzheimer’s-related brain pathology more accurately while avoiding confounding signals from kidney dysfunction. Study: Head-to-head comparison of brain-derived pTau217 and total pTau217 for brain amyloid and tau pathology classification.
