The Hopeful Journey: Early Detection and Comprehensive Resources for Alzheimer’s Sufferers in Israel
Alzheimer’s disease is a degenerative neurological condition that affects memory and cognitive function, leading to dementia. It is the leading cause of dementia in old age, affecting millions of people worldwide, including many in Israel. Traditional diagnosis methods involve a review of medical history and cognitive assessments, but new biological markers offer early detection accuracy.
Prof. David Tana, a neurology expert, emphasizes the importance of early detection in guiding drug treatment and lifestyle changes to delay disease progression. The new amyloid test is now available for individuals over 18 who have been referred by a doctor for cognitive testing. The cost of the test is NIS 3,450 and can be combined with additional tests for specific drug treatment or genetic prediction of the disease. Most private health insurances in Israel now cover the test, and it is expected to be subsidized by health funds soon.
