Eligibility Criteria
Clinical diagnosis of possible or probable AD (according to revised diagnostic criteria (McKhann et al., 2011, Dubois et al., 2007)
You may qualify if:
- Clinical diagnosis of possible or probable AD (according to revised diagnostic criteria (McKhann et al., 2011, Dubois et al., 2007)
You may not qualify if:
- Significant vascular change on neuro-imaging (Fazekas grading of white matter change \>2) (Fazekas et al., 2002).
- Clinical history of stroke, Parkinsonism, epilepsy or other neurological disorder. (e.g. severe auditory, visual, language or motor impairment)
- Moderate to severe dementia (defined by research team but we wouldn't expect those with a mini mental state exam \[MMSE\] ≤ 18 to be able to participate)
- Severe current mental health disorder (depression, psychosis).
- Patients on sedating or antiepileptic medication
