"Skin Biopsy Test for Parkinson's Diagnosis Confirmed at AAN 2024"

The Syn-One test, which uses a skin biopsy to detect atypical clumps of the protein alpha-synuclein, shows promise in confirming Parkinson's disease diagnosis and guiding treatment decisions. Data presented at the AAN 2024 Annual Meeting revealed that the test led to changes in diagnosis and treatment for a significant number of patients evaluated for Parkinson's. The test's potential impact on clinical decision-making and its ability to aid in confirming related medical conditions were highlighted, emphasizing the need for earlier and accurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders.

"Skin Test for Parkinson's: A Breakthrough in Disease Detection"

A skin biopsy test called Syn-One has shown promise in detecting alpha-synuclein clumps, a hallmark feature of Parkinson's disease and related conditions, with positive results in over 90% of patients in a recent NIH-sponsored clinical trial. The test, developed by CND Life Sciences, offers a less invasive and more convenient diagnostic pathway compared to traditional methods, such as spinal taps. The study's findings suggest that the Syn-One Test could be a valuable tool for early disease diagnosis and may aid in improving care for patients with synucleinopathies.

"Skin Biopsy Test for Early Parkinson's Detection Developed"

A new skin test called Syn-One Test has been developed to detect protein buildup in nerves, indicating Parkinson's disease with 93% accuracy. The test aims to diagnose the disease early, potentially allowing for the initiation of drug treatment to slow its progression. It can also differentiate Parkinson's from other diseases with similar symptoms and is already in use by over 1,200 neurologists in 46 states.
