DISCERN™ is the world’s first easy to administer test that can accurately identify Alzheimer’s Disease even at the earliest stages of onset by testing for the presence of 3 key proprietary biomarkers, unique to AD. It enables healthcare providers a definitive diagnosis of AD versus other forms of dementia and empowers them to enact a plan of care and a pathway to prepare for the future.
Easily administered, DISCERN™ requires a small skin sample taken by a certified healthcare provider. DISCERN™ is the only test that can provide clinicians a diagnosis with 95% certainty whether a patient has Alzheimer’s Disease or not.

“We believe this investment continues to distinguish the accuracy of our biomarkers from all other diagnostics in Alzheimer’s Disease, since it is undoubtedly the first accurate, gold-standard autopsy-confirmed minimally invasive test for the definitive diagnosis of AD vs. other forms of dementia,” says Frank Amato, CEO and president, SDx. “DISCERN relies on three independently accurate biomarkers related to synaptic function and is well positioned to help address a number of key issues that payers, providers and patients face when it comes to getting a definitive diagnosis for AD early in the patient journey.”
