Understanding alterations in structural disorders in tissue/cells/building blocks, such as DNA/chromatin in the human brain, at the nano to submicron level provides us with efficient biomarkers for Alzheimer's detection. Here, we report a dual photonics technique to detect nano- to submicron-scale alterations in brain tissues/cells and DNA/chromatin due to the early to late progression of Alzheimer's disease in humans. Using a recently developed mesoscopic light transport technique, fine-focused nano-sensitive partial wave spectroscopy (PWS), we measure the degree of structural disorder in tissues.
