Memory loss and mental confusion are the first overt signs of Alzheimer's Disease, an incurable and fatal brain ailment. But scientists are starting to find evidence of the disease long before symptoms appear. In the latest research, MRI scans show telltale signs in the brain a decade before memory and thinking are affected.The pace of research aimed at understanding and preventing or treating Alzheimer's has been frustratingly slow. A number of medicines have reached the market in recent years, but at best they only slow the progression of the disease.
