HEALTHY BRAINS
As part of general health care it is common to regularly record heart rate, temperature and blood pressure, but brain performance is seldom checked. There are a variety of paper and pencil tests available for this purpose, but they are time consuming and expensive to administer. Most people do not want to be bothered with this process as part of a routine medical checkup. It is far simpler to track brain performance with computer based tests. These tests are easier to administer than paper and pencil tests and they are more accurate. For example, with our memory tests we can measure and record changes in memory performance in less than 5 minutes. WHY MEASURE MEMORY? A decline in memory performance can be an early sign of Alzheimer's Disease. Monitoring memory in the 50+ years can help in assessing the risk of Alzheimer's Disease. An unusual change in performance can alert your doctor of a condition that might require a more thorough examination. Typically this would begin with a physical exam and a possible brain scan.

This has particular application for soldiers subject to shock and impact head trauma. |
