title: [General diagnostic center as a indicator of the problems of psychiatric service in Armenia].
abstract: The efforts directed to understanding of the role of genetic factors in both etiology and risk to develop Alzheimer's disease (AD) become more active. The results of such investigations should be used in genetic counseling with a caution. This counseling should be individual for each family. In respect to molecular genetic testing (and to some extent to diagnostic testing) we can't now do this work in most cases with sufficient accuracy, taking into consideration social, juridical, psychological, ethic and moral potential significance of such information. However, the data accumulated now about the role of a genetic factor in AD allow to perform a genetic assessment in certain cases by geneticists and the clinicians in specialized AD clinics.
