Medical teams might one day diagnose serious brain diseases without a brain scan or spinal tap.

Scientists have developed a new test that analyzes tiny structural changes in brain-related proteins found in saliva. This according to Korean study published in the journal Advanced Materials.

Using special nanomaterials made of gold and copper oxide, the system amplifies extremely weak biological signals more than a billion times, allowing them to be detected.

Artificial intelligence then analyzes these signals to identify patterns linked to neurological diseases.

In early testing with patients, the technology identified Parkinson’s disease, epilepsy, and schizophrenia with accuracy above 90%—reaching up to 98%.

Currently, the diagnosis of many neurological diseases requires expensive brain imaging and spinal fluid tests. This simple saliva test makes screening faster, cheaper, and far less invasive, potentially allowing doctors to detect problems much earlier…..someday soon.
