Abstract: A method of screening a patient for a degenerative neurological disorder. The method can comprise the steps of: providing a tablet computer having a touchscreen to the patient, instructing the patient to draw a plurality of shapes, wherein each shape of the plurality of shapes is of varying complexity, recording at least one drawing characteristic for each shape drawn by the patient, mathematically analyzing the at least one drawing characteristic to determine an objective rating for each shape, analyzing the objective rating for each shape using a random forest comprising a plurality of decision trees to determine an objective probability that the patient has a neurological deficit, wherein the objective probability that the patient has a neurological deficit is the percentage of the plurality of decision trees which indicate a disease state.
