Description
Claudio Babiloni tests whether slow brain waves at rest mirror shrinkage in a core brain network in Alzheimer's disease, in a 2025 conference paper. The network, called the default mode network, is active when the mind is at rest. Past scans show it shrinks in the disease, while rest brain waves in the alpha range grow weak.
The study drew on an open archive with 45 patients, 160 people with memory complaints, and 40 healthy adults. Each person had brain scans and rest wave records with eyes closed. Patients showed both a smaller network and weaker back of head alpha waves than healthy adults. The two signs also moved together in key links. Babiloni reads this as proof that the wave test is a cheap window on deep disease change.
