A national collaboration between experts from 17 institutions has unveiled a new tool to accelerate a clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Developed specifically for clinical neuropsychologists by the Australian Dementia Network (ADNeT) Memory Clinics initiative, UNSW Sydney’s Centre for Healthy Brain Ageing (CHeBA) , the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre (BMC), and the CSIRO, the ADNeT Neuropsychological Norming Tool (ANNT) promises to speed up the rate at which a potential diagnosis can be formulated and communicated to the client.
