Research Abstract |
In this study, we developed the Takeda Three Colors Combination Test (TTCC) as a simplified screening test for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and examined its effectiveness. The TTCC has proven to be of adequate sensitivity and specificity as a screening test for AD. Furthermore, administration time is short and requires no special training or skills. Thus, we believe the TTCC shows great potential for use as an AD screening test by a general practitioner in communities worldwide.
