  • The Time Is Now: Early Diagnosis and Intervention in Alzheimer’s Disease
    Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO
    Guest: Lori Guyton, MD
    Guest: Douglas W. Scharre, MD

    Our understanding of the mechanisms underlying Alzheimer’s disease is growing, and these advances can help inform diagnosis and management strategies. In fact, as our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease evolves, our strategies to diagnose and manage the disease are changing to focus on early diagnosis and intervention.1 Joining Dr. Jennifer Caudle to discuss our current understanding of disease progression as well as the impact and benefit of diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease early are Drs. Douglas Scharre and Lori Guyton. Dr. Scharre is the Director of the Division of Cognitive Neurology at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, and Dr. Guyton is a practicing neurologist with Neurology of Southern Illinois in Herrin.

  • Beyond Plaques: Current Concepts in Alzheimer’s Pathophysiology
    Host: Jennifer Caudle, DO
    Guest: Lori Guyton, MD
    Guest: Douglas W. Scharre, MD

    As our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease continues to evolve, it’s critical to understand the clinical and pathologic changes underpinning Alzheimer’s disease as it may be able to help guide early diagnosis and clinically meaningful management decisions.1 That’s why Drs. Douglas Scharre and Lori Guyton speak with Dr. Jennifer Caudle about Alzheimer’s disease pathophysiology and how it translates to clinical practice. Dr. Scharre is a Professor of Clinical Neurology and Psychiatry as well as the Director for the Division of Cognitive Neurology at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, and Dr. Guyton is a practicing neurologist with Neurology of Southern Illinois in Herrin.
