Abstract

This review paper explores advancements in Alzheimer's diagnosis and care, highlighting recent research and innovative approaches. Alzheimer's disease, a leading cause of dementia, significantly impacts patients, families, and healthcare systems worldwide. This paper examines the effectiveness of various diagnostic techniques, including neuroimaging, biomarker analysis, and cognitive testing. Additionally, it explores innovative care strategies designed to enhance patient quality of life, including personalized treatment plans, lifestyle interventions, and community support programs. By synthesizing findings from diverse studies, this review provides a comprehensive overview of current trends and future directions in Alzheimer's diagnosis and care. Key insights emphasize the importance of early detection, integrated care approaches, and the potential of emerging technologies to revolutionize the management of Alzheimer's disease. This review underscores the critical need for continued research and collaboration in addressing the complex challenges posed by Alzheimer's disease.
