48 +
49 +1. Traditional Probabilistic Diagnosis
50 +
51 +* AI provides multiple possible diagnoses, each assigned a probability percentage based on biomarker, imaging, and clinical data.
52 +* Example Output:
53 +** 75% Alzheimer's Disease
54 +** 20% Lewy Body Dementia
55 +** 5% Vascular Dementia
56 +* Useful for differential diagnosis and treatment decision-making.
57 +
58 +2. Tridimensional Diagnosis
59 +
60 +* Diagnoses are structured based on:
61 +(1) Etiology (genetic, autoimmune, metabolic, infectious)
62 +(2) Molecular Biomarkers (amyloid-beta, tau, inflammatory markers, EEG patterns)
63 +(3) Neuroanatomoclinical Correlations (brain atrophy, connectivity alterations)
64 +* This approach enables precise disease subtyping and biologically meaningful classification, particularly useful to track progression over time.
65 +
66 +For every patient case, both systems will be offered, allowing clinicians to compare AI-generated probabilistic diagnosis with a structured tridimensional classification.
