This Good Practice Paper provides recommendations for the use of advanced imaging for earlier diagnosis and morbidity prevention in multiple myeloma. It describes how advanced imaging contributes to optimal healthcare resource utilisation by in newly diagnosed and relapsed myeloma, and provides a perspective on future directions of myeloma imaging, including machine learning assisted reporting.

Background: Alzheimer's and related disorders (ADRD) represent a range of neurodegenerative conditions characterized by abnormal protein deposits in the brain. Despite advances, there is a need for enhanced diagnostic and treatment approaches that acknowledge the diversity of ADRD. This project introduces the Alzheimer's and Related Disorders Multicenter Archive (ARMA), a collaborative platform with an advanced Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system linked to Electronic Medical Records (EMR) designed to refine ADRD diagnosis and natural history understanding, thus informing precision medicine.

Background: Lyn kinase, a member of the Src family of tyrosine kinases, predominantly phosphorylates ITIM and ITAM motifs linked to immune receptors and adaptor proteins, and is emerging as a target for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The role of Lyn in TREM2-mediated microglial activation and phagocytosis, a critical pathway for clearing Aβ plaques, remains unclear and potent, selective, and brain penetrant Lyn inhibitors are unavailable. In this study, we report the characterization of Lyn kinase inhibitors from the literature as well as the establishment of an advanced virtual screening platform at the IUSM-Purdue-TREAT-AD center to identify new type II Lyn inhibitors suitable as molecular probes.

Background: The recent breakthrough in monoclonal antibody treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) has ushered in a new phase in AD healthcare. However, associated amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) present a significant risk to patients, necessitating careful monitoring. Detection by radiologists can be challenging and may suffer from inconsistency.

Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Introduction: Lecanemab (LEQEMBI®), a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting Amyloid-beta (Aβ) protofibrils, received full FDA approval in July 2023 for treating early-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD). This abstract highlights Tel Aviv Medical Center's (TLVMC) specialized infrastructure for early AD diagnosis and treatment and includes presenting baseline characteristics of initial patients opting for LEQEMBI®.
Methods: Outlining our clinics' operational experience in establishing the Center for advanced treatments for AD, treatment protocol, and a descriptive analysis of baseline assessment data including demographics, baseline Magnetic-Resonance-Imaging (MRI), Cerebrospinal-fluid (CSF)/PET biomarkers, pre-treatment cognitive evaluations (Mini-Mental-State-Examination (MMSE)/Montreal-Cognitive-Assessment (MoCA)), and Apolipoprotein-E (APOE) status.

Implementation of amyloid-lowering treatments in clinical care for early symptomatic Alzheimer disease (AD) raises many challenges. The Memory Diagnostic Center (MDC), the dementia specialty practice associated with Barnes-Jewish Hospital/Washington University School of Medicine (BJH/WUSM), has 16 clinicians (12 physicians and 4 advanced practice providers) who see over 2,000 patients with memory disorders per year. BJH is the academic flagship of BJC HealthCare (BJC), an integrated health system in St.
