Diagnostic Potentials Ltd

Category: Medical Device Company

Company Activity

Diagnostic Potentials is a spin-out company from the Department of Psychology, University of Glasgow. The company commenced operations in July 1999 and began its development program in October that year. After achieving outstanding success with the research and development phase in the early part of 2000, the system was tested on a suitable number of subjects in the second half of that year reaching proof of concept in December.

Products & Services

Diagnostic Potentials Ltd is developing a diagnostic tool for the early and accurate detection of Alzheimer's Disease. We have developed a set of computerised cognitive tasks designed to tap into aspects of intellectual function, such as memory and attention, which are particulary at risk in the early stages of AD. These tasks are combined with an advanced form of measuring the brain's electrical activity (EEG). The EEG system we use consists of a 128-channel sensor net which can be put on in about 5 minutes. Unlike more traditional forms of EEG, this system does not require abrasion of the skin or the use of sticky gels, which improves comfort and virtually eliminates any risk of infection.
