项目摘要

In this project, we will realise the potential of quantum technology for diagnosing and managing treatment of dementia. OPM-MEG is a new type of brain scan that uses quantum sensors to measure the tiny magnetic fields generated by the brain. In this way, OPM-MEG assesses electrical currents flowing through brain cells, and provides assessment of brain activity. OPM-MEG is wearable (it looks like a bike helmet) and patient friendly, it can be used in all ages (babies to adults), and patients can move (even go for a walk!) during a scan. It requires less infrastructure than conventional systems and significantly outperforms even the most advanced scanners currently in use.Brain health represents an enormous challenge for 21st century healthcare. In the UK, there are \>900,000 people living with dementia, and the disease costs the economy ~£35 billion per year. With an aging population, these figures are predicted to increase. Although there is no cure, there have been recent promising developments: new blood tests aid diagnosis, and new treatments have slowed memory decline. However, there remains no way to track disease progression, measure the effect of treatment, or assess new treatments. Further, there is a pressing need to diagnose different disease sub-types to select the best treatment for each individual. OPM-MEG offers significant promise in this area.Our project will develop a new type of OPM-MEG for dementia. To make our technology fit for purpose, we will overcome existing barriers by developing novel solutions. In particular, we will develop the hardware and software required to simplify the system, making it easier to use, more accurate, and faster to operate. In addition, we will develop cloud-based data processing, enabling results of a scan to be delivered more efficiently. The result will be a 'next-generation' device ready for translation, with both improved patient and operator experience.We will partner with the Oxford Centre for Human Brain Activity (OHBA), which hosts a world-leading dementia clinic, the Oxford Brain Health Clinic. OPM-MEG will be installed and patients will be offered a scan. Working with the Oxford team, we will demonstrate feasibility of gathering data in large numbers of dementia patients, which will ultimately lead to more personalised treatments. In this way, the OPM-MEG at OHBA will act as a prototype for a clinical technology, demonstrating feasibility in dementia, whilst also establishing a basis for future use in other brain health applications.
在这个项目中,我们将认识到量子技术在诊断和管理痴呆症治疗方面的潜力。OPM-MEG是一种新型的大脑扫描,它使用量子传感器来测量大脑产生的微小磁场。通过这种方式,OPM-MEG评估流经脑细胞的电流,并提供大脑活动的评估。OPM-MEG是可穿戴的(它看起来像一个自行车头盔)和病人友好,它可以在所有年龄(婴儿到成人)使用,病人可以移动(甚至去散步!)在扫描过程中。它需要比传统系统更少的基础设施,甚至比目前使用的最先进的扫描仪也要好得多。脑健康是21世纪世纪医疗保健的巨大挑战。在英国,有超过90万人患有痴呆症,这种疾病每年给经济造成约350亿英镑的损失。随着人口老龄化,预计这些数字将增加。虽然没有治愈的方法,但最近有一些有希望的发展:新的血液测试有助于诊断,新的治疗方法减缓了记忆力的下降。然而,仍然没有办法跟踪疾病进展,衡量治疗效果或评估新的治疗方法。此外,迫切需要诊断不同的疾病亚型,为每个人选择最佳治疗方法。OPM-MEG在这一领域提供了重要的前景。我们的项目将开发一种新型的OPM-MEG用于痴呆症。为了使我们的技术适用于目的,我们将通过开发新的解决方案来克服现有的障碍。特别是,我们将开发简化系统所需的硬件和软件,使其更容易使用,更准确,操作更快。此外,我们将开发基于云的数据处理,使扫描结果能够更有效地交付。我们将与牛津人脑活动中心(OHBA)合作,该中心拥有世界领先的痴呆症诊所牛津脑健康诊所。将安装OPM-MEG,并为患者提供扫描。与牛津团队合作,我们将证明收集大量痴呆症患者数据的可行性,这将最终导致更个性化的治疗。通过这种方式,OHBA的OPM-MEG将作为临床技术的原型,展示痴呆症的可行性,同时也为未来在其他大脑健康应用中的使用奠定基础。
