Machine Learning Derived MRI Based Biomarker for Alzheimer’s Disease Vincent Mok 教授是香港中文大學威爾斯親王醫院內科及治療學系神經科教授。他 Prof. Vincent Mok is Professor of Neurology, Department of Medicine and Therapeutics, Prince of Wales Hospital, The Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research focuses on understanding the mechanisms of dementia and to investigate strategies that may help to prevent dementia. He is the first to report the association of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and cognitive impairment in Asia and the first to report the community prevalence of CSVD among Asians (Chinese). Such findings have significantly increased the awareness that strategies targeting CSVD (e.g. blood pressure lowering) can help to prevent dementia in this region, where the burden of dementia is particularly huge. Prof. Mok conducted one of the largest single-centre studies investigating the prevalence and mechanisms of early and delayed cognitive decline in the context of stroke and found that concurrent presence of amyloid plaques as detected by in-vivo amyloid PET imaging and CSVD are important factors associated with early and delayed cognitive decline after stroke, respectively. Such findings provide a road map of how to prevent vascular cognitive impairment. |
