What are the symptoms of Alzheimer's?

How do you know if your parent has alzheimers?

No there is not a test. Alzheimers and other dementias are diagnosed more based on memory loss and behaviors. An MRI can be done what it shows may be indicative of dementia, or not.

A test called Mini Mental Status is often given in the doctors office, then the diagnosis.
