Description
Matej Perovnik and co-authors test a brain scan pattern for Lewy body dementia across many centers in a 2025 study. The disease is hard to spot because no single test confirms it. Earlier small studies found a pattern of sugar use across the brain that marks the illness. A pattern only helps clinics if it works on patients from many hospitals.
The team gathered scans of 259 patients and 176 healthy adults from eight centers in Europe and beyond. Software scored how strongly each scan matched the pattern. Patient scores differed clearly from control scores across the sites. A shared scoring method could help doctors separate this disease from Alzheimer's. That split matters because the two illnesses need different care.
