Imaging Dementia in African Populations: Closing the Health Equity Gap

2025Open accessUniversity of Ibadan

Abstract

Thus, we propose, 1) increased imaging infrastructure investment, especially in low-cost technologies, 2) optimization of existing clinical imaging systems for advanced imaging, 3) collaborative training of local personnel through upskilling programs and 4) establishment of regional and global partnerships. Together these actions can transform dementia imaging capacity in Africa.
