Early Detection Saves Lives:
Discover the Power of Neurotest

The story of Neurotest begins in university research laboratories, where a dedicated team of clinical neuroscientists asked a simple but profound question: Why do so many cases of cognitive decline go undetected until it’s too late?

The answer, they discovered, was accessibility. Traditional neuropsychological assessments are expensive, time-consuming, and often require specialist referrals that can take months to schedule. By the time a patient finally sits down for a full evaluation, subtle but significant changes may have already progressed into more serious conditions.

Over the course of 15 years, the team developed and refined the Subtle Cognitive Impairment Test (SCIT) — a brief, computer-based assessment that can detect the earliest signs of cognitive change. The evidence base for this approach was established by Moore et al., who identified the key elements required to perform a clinically useful neurological examination without unnecessary complexity.

The SCIT was designed to be brief yet comprehensive. It doesn’t replace a full clinical diagnosis, but it serves as an essential first line of screening — flagging potential issues so that individuals can seek professional evaluation sooner rather than later. The test runs on standard Windows and Mac OS computers through common web browsers, making it accessible in clinics, community centers, and private homes alike.

But the Neurotest team didn’t stop there. Recognizing the critical importance of early childhood intervention, they expanded the platform to include an autism screening app based on the internationally recognized M-CHAT-R standard. This app uses 25 carefully designed yes/no questions to assess toddlers aged 16 to 30 months for signs of autism spectrum disorder. Parents receive an immediate risk assessment — low, medium, or high — along with clear, jargon-free guidance on the next steps to take.

Today, Neurotest stands as one of the most versatile and scientifically grounded screening platforms available. Whether you’re a parent concerned about your toddler’s development, an adult monitoring your own cognitive health, or a clinician seeking a reliable screening tool for your practice, Neurotest delivers results you can trust — backed by a decade and a half of peer-reviewed research.
