| description | Aims:
Dementia assessments are time-intensive and often distressing for patients and caregivers. Underdiagnosis of non-Alzheimer’s disease subtypes remains prevalent. This study aimed to develop and evaluate LUMEN (Large Language Model for Understanding and Monitoring Elderly Neurocognition), a prototype conversational AI to automate caregiver-collateral data collection before clinical appointments. Our goals were to reduce clinician time per assessment, improve diagnostic accuracy across dementia subtypes, and standardise caregiver assessments. |
