About Intraneuron

 

Intraneuron and Memory Exam

Welcome to Intraneuron, a leading provider of comprehensive neuropsychological testing and diagnostic services for memory disorders and other neurological conditions.

Our mission is to revolutionize access and detection of neurocognitive disorders to improve outcomes and reduce costs.

Our story

Intraneuron was founded by Dr. Gregory Sahagian and Vidar Vignisson in 2013.  Our professional experience and family experience with neurocognitive disorders motivated us to create Intraneuron.  We share a belief that we can improve the lives of people who suffer from neurocognitive disorders through innovative use of digital technology.  

We have assembled a world class team that recognizes the importance of early detection and intervention for cognitive and neurological disorders. Our team includes neurologists, neuropsychologists and technical professionals.

Memory Exam was developed with our neurologists and clinical neuropsychologists at The Neurology Center of Southern California, and the technology is protected by United States patents 11,547,345 and 12,226,221.

Our vision

We strive to become the gold standard in neuropsychological assessment and diagnosis by providing accurate, accessible, cost effective, timely and personalized evaluations for individuals with cognitive impairment, dementia and other neurological disorders. Our goal is to improve lives through early detection, targeted interventions and ongoing support for patients and their families.

Our values

  1. Compassion: We approach every patient with empathy, understanding and respect, fostering an environment of trust and support throughout the diagnostic process.
  2. Precision: We prioritize accurate, reliable and valid assessments by employing the latest neuropsychological testing methods and technologies.
  3. Collaboration: We work closely with healthcare providers, families and patients to ensure a comprehensive understanding of each individual's cognitive and neurological profile.
  4. Innovation: We constantly seek to improve our diagnostic tools and testing procedures by staying informed about the latest advances in neuroscience and neuropsychology.
  5. Education: We are committed to raising awareness about cognitive decline and neurological disorders, empowering patients and their families with the knowledge needed to navigate their journey.

Our partners and services

Intraneuron partners with top health organizations and associations.  We enable them to offer batteries of neuropsychological exams targeted to specific neurological disorders.

Intraneuron specializes in providing thorough and personalized assessments for a range of cognitive and neurological concerns, including:

  1. Neuropsychological Testing: Our comprehensive testing battery evaluates cognitive functioning across domains such as memory, attention, language and executive skills, helping to identify specific areas of impairment and guide targeted interventions.
  2. Memory Exams: We offer in-depth memory assessments to detect early signs of cognitive decline, differentiate between normal age-related changes and pathological processes, and monitor changes over time.
  3. Diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Dementia: Our expert team is skilled at identifying the subtle signs of MCI and various forms of dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia and Lewy body dementia, providing timely and accurate diagnoses.
  4. Assessment of Other Neurological Issues: We also evaluate cognitive and behavioral changes associated with traumatic brain injury, stroke, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and other neurological conditions.

At Intraneuron, we are dedicated to helping individuals and their families navigate the complexities of cognitive decline and neurological disorders.

What we've built

Memory Exam is our at-home cognitive screening test, taken by voice, that anyone can buy directly online. We also created at workflow software that community neurology practices use to deliver structured dementia care, including the CMS GUIDE model.
