The MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment or The MoCA Test) is a highly sensitive tool for early detection of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It has been validated in hundreds of peer-reviewed studies since 2000 and has a sensitivity of 90% for detecting MCI.
The test assesses various cognitive functions such as short-term memory, visuospatial abilities, executive functions, attention, concentration, working memory, language, and orientation to time and place.
MoCA is regularly used by a range of health care professionals and researchers to detect cognitive impairment related to various conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, Lewy Body Dementia, VCI/Stroke, Fronto-temporal dementia, and many others, even including conditions like COVID.
