Abstract: A method of predicting therapeutic effects of a treatment for cognitive impairment for an individual using the individual's predicted age difference (PAD), the method comprising scanning the individual's brain with a scanning device so as to acquire at least one medical brain image at the beginning of the treatment; processing the medical brain image to obtain at least one feature of the image; generating a PAD value of the individual based on the at least one feature of the image; comparing the PAD value with a reference value; and predicting the therapeutic effects of the treatment for cognitive impairment using the comparison result of the PAD value and the reference value.

Abstract: A method of quantitatively evaluating a cognitive status and its future change from a medical image of an individual's brain, the method comprising scanning the individual's brain with a scanning device so as to acquire at least one medical brain image; processing the medical brain image to obtain at least one feature of the image; using a pre-established prediction model to determine a condition of the cognitive status and predict its future change based on the at least one feature obtained.
