QEEG‐based discernment of dementia pathologies through machine learning: Lewy body and Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia, which destroys nerve cells in the brain through the formation and accumulation of amyloid plaques. However, various other pathologies of dementia also exist, such as Lewy body pathology where the destruction is caused by the accumulation of Lewy body peptides. Differing dementia pathologies carry distinguishing symptoms and treatment methods; hence we cannot disregard the importance of correct identification of the pathology.
