signs. they're bent run by teams in oxford and london. the plans to introduce screening for dementia in the over 50s. fergus walsh reports. what can our blood tell us about our brain? this small trial in oxford is looking for clues. lucy, like many of the healthy volunteers, has a personalfamily motivation for being involved. the main driver for the dementia was because my mother had dementia, and ijust have very close personal experience of how miserable that is. i mean, she wasn't... fortunately she was relatively old. she was in her 80s when it started, and she died at 97. but her last few years were really mired by the disease. what's your first language? over the next five years, around 5,000 people will take part in research assessing blood tests to see how accurately they can identify various forms of dementia, most notably alzheimer's disease. damian is another healthy volunteer in the oxford study. my father suffered and eventually passed away from alzheimer's disease. his mother had a dementia of sorts as well. so there's a family history there, so i obviously have an interest in identifying these diseases early. and secondly, having worked with alzheimer's patients for a lot of my career, i can see the advantages of early diagnosis, the advantages of early support, and hopefully this will help with that. hello, please have a seat here. mohammed has some minor memory problems and does all he can to stay healthy. memory is very important, especially when you see the people with dementia, the suffering, and they don't know who they are, and they forget the family, they forget the children, they forget their wives, so it is quite worrying. in alzheimer's disease, rogue proteins can build up in the brain over 20 years before a person shows problems with memory and understanding. the tests will search for biomarkers in the blood, which can identify the early stages of dementia. if a reliable blood test for alzheimer's is eventually approved by the nhs, it would transform diagnosis and mean that people could be screened for dementia in their 50s, long before symptoms emerge. the studies will aim to include people from diverse backgrounds and ethnicities, so a wide cross—section of society is represented. the studies will assess how best to give feedback to patients, such as using a traffic light system to indicate whether they are at low, medium or high risk of dementia. alzheimer's charities say it could transform the way the disease is diagnosed. a blood test would help because it would provide an accurate and fast, robust diagnosis for alzheimer's disease and those diseases associated with dementia. at the moment, many people are unable to access the kinds of tests, such as pet scans and lumbar punctures, that really show the biological underpinnings of the disease and give that accurate diagnosis for patients. around a third of patients with dementia never get a formal diagnosis, and only a tiny minority have access to specialist brain scans or spinal lumbar punctures, which are the gold standard tests. new treatments may soon be licensed, which can slow down the progress of alzheimer's, so accurate diagnosis is more important than ever. fergus walsh, bbc news. buckingham palace's centre on where the royal family meets before appearances on the balcony will open to the public for the first time. visitors will
