My LO had a Saint Louis University Mental Status Examination (SLUMS) test and scored 23 which is mild cognitive impairment which they said is is mild dementia. Does anyone know how fast this would turn to full dementia?

Are there any plans to do more intensive cognitive testing or to do any brain imaging (usually an MRI)?
