In the current issue of Journal of Internal Medicine, Liss and colleagues highlight the critical role of primary care clinicians in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) prevention, diagnosis and management, and present practical recommendations on how an early diagnosis of AD could be made in primary care using new and accessible diagnostic tools [1]. AD is very common, the progress in diagnostics during the past few years has been enormous, and disease-modifying treatments may be around the corner, making the paper a must-read for any clinician caring for patients in midto late-adult life in general practice, as well as decision-makers in primary healthcare systems and memory clinics.
