A system (100) and method for clinical evaluation of neurodegenerative disease present in a subject is described. The system (100) comprises an image acquisition module (122) operable to acquire image data representative of a brain of a subject, and an image analyser (124). The image analyser (124) is operable to determine a quantitative value from the image data that is indicative of the level of neurodegenerative disease present in the brain of the subject. Various embodiments of the invention provide a tool that aids in improved early diagnosis and monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases, such as, for example, Alzheimer's disease (AD).
L'invention concerne un système (100) et un procédé d'évaluation clinique d'une maladie neurodégénérative contractée par un patient. Le système (100) comprend un odieux d'acquisition d'images (122) conçu pour acquérir des données d'images représentant le cerveau d'un patient, et un analyseur d'images (124). L'analyseur d'images (127) est conçu pour déterminer une valeur quantitative à partir des données d'images indiquant le niveau de la maladie neurodégénérative au niveau du cerveau du patient. Des modes de réalisation variée de l'invention concernent un instrument permettant d'améliorer l'établissement d'un diagnostic précoce et la surveillance de maladies neurodégénératives, notamment, par exemple, la maladie d'Alzheimer.
