The activity will provide practical guidance for primary care providers on the clinical diagnosis of AD, including cognitive testing. It will also discuss neuroimaging and fluid markers to aid in diagnosis and monitoring of AD, including ongoing research in serum biomarkers that may soon expedite disease recognition. The AdaptED module will provide learners with evidence-based education in a convenient format that facilitates quick application of the material.
