Brain Atrophy Scale
The Brain Atrophy Scale is a tool used by healthcare professionals to measure the degree of brain tissue loss, or atrophy, often related to aging or neurological conditions like Alzheimer's. It assesses the size and shape of specific brain regions using imaging scans, helping determine how much brain tissue has shrunk. A higher score indicates more atrophy, which can be associated with cognitive decline or neurological impairment. This scale assists in diagnosing, monitoring disease progression, and planning appropriate treatment or interventions.
