Regulators in the U.S. and Europe have certified a mass-spectrometry-based blood test for amyloid-β. Plasma phospho-tau markers are poised to come next.
By pinpointing where tau pathology starts in a person’s brain, researchers better predicted future spread and determined small changes in tangle load.
