Cortical thickness, MRI, and early Alzheimer's diagnosis

Alongside today's brief post on diet and aging, I thought I would pass on the links to two open access articles in the neurology journal "Brain." The first deals with early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease using cortical thickness, and the second uses automated MRI measurements to identify individuals with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. (And, I suppose this is a good post in which to act on a request that I provide a link to Caring.com, "a website dedicated to helping people take care of their aging parents and other loved ones.")
