Abstract

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease and the main cause of age-related dementia. The incidence and financial burden of this brain disorder are expected to increase significantly in the coming decades. Establishing a definitive diagnosis of AD is a long and costly process involving multiple clinical assessments and a range of imaging and laboratory tests. Aim: This review investigates the potential application of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in the diagnosis and screening of AD in the elderly, highlighting the advantages and limitations of this optical diagnostic method compared with those currently used in clinical practice. Additionally, this review examines the utility of FTIR spectroscopy in the differential diagnosis between AD and closely related neurodegenerative diseases. Conclusion: FTIR spectroscopy-based analysis of blood plasma possesses attractive properties to qualify as a promising screening and diagnostic test for AD. It can also be a potential tool for differentiating between AD and dementia with Lewy bodies with relatively high accuracy. This vibrational spectroscopic technique overcomes many, if not most, of the limitations associated with the laboratory and imaging methods used for AD diagnosis. Relevance for patients: Early detection of AD can be of immense benefit to patients, their caregivers, and society as a whole. It enables patients to plan their lives while retaining full decision-making capacity. It also allows patients to start appropriate treatment early in the disease course, which can delay their need for healthcare services.
