Brain Imaging and the Role It Plays In Ending Alzheimer's Most of Alzheimer's research has been conducted by individual doctors, or medical researchers - not only working in isolation, but often working with little or no funding. When a researchers needs to "see" how or if a brain is diseased or responding to a treatment - there is a need for some form of physical evidence. Just as Dr. Alzheimer's used the microscope in 1906 to document the damages caused by the disease process- today's scientists and doctors can use powerful imaging technology to view three dimensional living brains - making it possible to monitor the disease process as well as identify treatment response in "real" time.
