Test your clinical knowledge of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease biology, early symptom recognition, and the emerging role of AI-assisted neuroimaging in diagnosis and disease management.
5 questions
Which neuropathological process is most directly associated with Alzheimer’s disease progression?
Correct Answer: C
Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by misfolded protein aggregation and progressive neuronal loss, leading to cortical atrophy and cognitive decline.

What is the most prominent early clinical manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease?
Correct Answer: A
Difficulty recalling recent conversations or events is the most common early clinical symptom of Alzheimer’s disease.
Parkinson’s disease primarily results from degeneration of neurons in which system?
Loss of dopamine-producing neurons, particularly within the nigrostriatal pathway, underlies both motor and non-motor features of Parkinson’s disease.
Why is neuroimaging important in the diagnosis and management of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases?
Correct Answer: B
Neuroimaging complements clinical evaluation by supporting diagnosis and facilitating emerging AI-based classification models for neurodegenerative disease.
What advantage do transformer-based AI models provide over traditional image analysis methods?
Transformer-based models can capture both local and global image relationships, allowing more comprehensive feature representation and improved classification performance.
