Overview
Brief Summary
This clinical trial aims to explore the effectiveness and safety of cognitive function improvement of Neuclare, a science medical device, for patients with mild cognitive impairment and early Alzheimer's disease.
Through methods such as Trail Making Test Black & White, Attention Questionnaire Scale(AQS), Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), etc, cognitive function improvement before and after using Neuclare will be evaluated.
