A Study to Gain Clinical Validation of an Automated Retinal Image Analysis System (EyeQuant) with Vascular Biomarkers to Indicate Cognitive Decline

Overview

About this study

This study aims to provide clinical validation of EyeQuant, a fully automated retinal image analysis system for computation of vascular biomarkers indicative of cognitive disorders, using retinal fundus photographs collected from patients with mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer’s disease, and vascular dementia. When deployed and commercialized, this system can assist in the identification of these biomarkers to aid in assessing drug/treatment efficacy and screening of the aging population in primary care practices and thus enable the early detection and effective management of patients with neurodegenerative disorders.
