Indications

* also see cognitive assessment

Diagnostic criteria

Laboratory

Clinical significance

Procedure

* free tools validated in primary care populations[10]

# MMSE may be better than MoCA for cognitive screening in African American patients

# MoCA is better than MMSE for detecting MCI in the elderly, particularly in the oldest old population[12][13]

Radiology

* presence of 2 of 3 predicts dementia

* hippocampal atrophy associated with 5-fold risk

* white matter lesions associated with ~3-fold risk[8]
