1 in 4 Patients With Cognitive Disorders is Misdiagnosed

COGNISION® is cleared by the FDA. COGNISION® is an objective biomarker system that offers clarity in a field of complexity. By facilitating an objective evaluation of patients with cognitive disorders, COGNISION® helps neurologists and other physicians differentiate between dementia and depression, track disease progression and assess overall cognitive deficits associated with dementia and concussion/mTBI.

How COGNISION® Helps Physicians Help Patients

Is it dementia or depression? Is the patient ready to return to their environment post head injury? COGNISION® helps physicians answer these questions and more by objectively measuring cognitive deficits and providing physicians with the clarity they need to better care for their patients.

How It Works

By placing the device headset on the surface of the scalp, COGNISION® measures electrical activity in the brain responsible for cognitive function. The device rapidly evaluates working memory, focal attention, executive function and brain processing speed through Event Related Potential (ERP) and quantitative EEG (qEEG) tests. A real-time, ready-to-read patient report is produced at the end of the testing session.

Helpful For

  • Differentiating dementia from depression
  • Detecting deficits in the brain early in the disease process
  • Tracking disease progression over time
  • Demonstrating medications are working
  • Facilitating better return to environment decisions post head injury
  • Predicting disease course and outcome after a concussion or TBI

"I have been using COGNISION® since 2016. It’s been an excellent tool added to my practice in evaluation of cognition. I find it can corroborate subtle cognitive changes as well as help monitor them too. It's a very useful metric to have at your disposal in a general or behavior neurological practice. Patients tolerate the testing very well in our office and our technologist has found it very user friendly with excellent support for any questions that may arise."

Download The Study

"COGNISION® has been a useful tool in my outpatient neurology practice for helping narrow down the differential diagnosis of dementia in our patients with co-morbid psychiatric disorders such as depression. The availability of this testing (done in our office and by our office staff) is a definite benefit to our patients. The Neuronetrix Customer service has been very helpful with any questions or difficulties we encountered and are always readily available."
