Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis

Accurate diagnosis of dementia requires careful assessment of cognitive, neurological, psychiatric, functional and medical factors. This session explores diagnostic criteria, clinical evaluation and differentiation between Alzheimer’s disease, other dementias, psychiatric conditions, delirium, medication effects and reversible causes of cognitive impairment. It also considers diagnostic challenges across ages, cultures, languages, healthcare settings and stages of disease.
