A new study found that dementia cases in the United States are projected to double from more than 500,000 in 2020 to about 1 million by 2050.

New research suggests that the risk for developing dementia is significantly higher than previously estimated, and the burden on the United States population will grow substantially over the next few decades.

By 2060, new dementia cases per year could double to one million because of the growing population of older Americans, a study predicts.

The risk of developing dementia in the United States is much higher than previously estimated, according to a new study published in the journal "Nature Medicine" on Monday.

Dementia rates in the U.S. could double by 2060 to a million new cases per year, according to a study published on Monday.

To combat the rise in dementia patients, researchers suggested policies that will prevent heart disease, such as blood pressure control and diabetes prevention, which are shown to slow cognitive decline.

By 2060, roughly one million Americans may develop dementia each year—around double the current rate—according to a new study published Monday in the journal Nature Medicine. Researchers found adults over the age of 55 have a 42 percent average risk of developing dementia within their lifetime,
