A new study revealed that Alzheimer’s disease can be detected by just listening to their voices. The study was led by Sona Patel, Professor at the Seton Hall University in New Jersey. The research was carried on the vocal impacts of the disorder by receiving $380,000, three-year grant from the National Institute of Deafness and Communicative Disorders to carry out research.

"Your voice is really important," Patel was quoted as saying. "You react to (stimuli) with your voice automatically, without even realizing it... now, the question is if we can use (voices) to indicate other neurological disorders," she said.

"By the time the disease has progressed enough to be properly diagnosed, there is not much you can do," she said.

Patel said that would not only increase early detection in the US, but could have a great impact on third world countries, where the disease is often never properly diagnosed or treated.
