What is BrainScan and should I be tested?
For those aged 35 and above, this blood test offers early detection of cognitive decline and helps guide prevention and treatment strategies.
Cognitive decline acts quietly, often only becoming noticeable after the window for the most effective actions closes. BrainScan is a early warning system designed to detect decline years before symptoms appear so that you can prevent it. The time to act is now, while you have the power to change the outcome. Don’t wait for symptoms to appear. Take control of your cognitive destiny today.
BrainScan is simple blood test that combines the Plasma Phosphorylated Tau 217 (p-Tau 217), Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and Neurofilament Light Chain (NfL) blood tests to detect cognitive decline years before symptoms appear, offering a gentle alternative to spinal taps and costly PET scans.
