阿尔茨海默病(AD)是一种进行性神经退行性疾病,早期诊断面临巨大挑战,常导致治疗延误和预后不良。传统诊断方法依赖单一数据模态,难以全面反映疾病复杂性。本文提出一种新型多模态框架,整合磁共振成像(MRI)、认知评估和生物标志物三类数据。采用卷积神经网络(CNN)分析MRI图像,长短期记忆网络(LSTM)处理认知与生物标志物数据,并通过加权平均等技术融合多源结果,即使在数据缺失情况下也能提升诊断可靠性。该方法显著增强了检测的鲁棒性,可实现疾病最早期阶段的识别,尤其生物标志物与认知测试的结合能提前发现症状前病变,为早期干预提供可能。研究证明该框架具有革新早期诊断的潜力,推动更及时有效的治疗。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Alzheimers Disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that poses significant challenges in its early diagnosis, often leading to delayed treatment and poorer outcomes for patients. Traditional diagnostic methods, typically reliant on single data modalities, fall short of capturing the multifaceted nature of the disease. In this paper, we propose a novel multimodal framework for the early detection of AD that integrates data from three primary sources: MRI imaging, cognitive assessments, and biomarkers. This framework employs Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for analyzing MRI images and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for processing cognitive and biomarker data. The system enhances diagnostic accuracy and reliability by aggregating results from these distinct modalities using advanced techniques like weighted averaging, even in incomplete data. The multimodal approach not only improves the robustness of the detection process but also enables the identification of AD at its earliest stages, offering a significant advantage over conventional methods. The integration of biomarkers and cognitive tests is particularly crucial, as these can detect Alzheimer's long before the onset of clinical symptoms, thereby facilitating earlier intervention and potentially altering the course of the disease. This research demonstrates that the proposed framework has the potential to revolutionize the early detection of AD, paving the way for more timely and effective treatments
