Physiological Brain Atlas Development

Sponsor

Vanderbilt University Medical Center

Enrollment

5,000 participants

Start Date

Aug 1, 2006

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Parkinson's Disease

Summary

The NIH grant has funded the development of a physiological brain atlas registry that will allow us to significantly improve the data collectioin and use of physiological data into a normalized brain volume. This initially was used to improve DBS implants for Parkinson's Disease, Dystonia, Essential Tremor, and OCD, but now includes data acquired during all stereotactic brain procedures.

Eligibility

Min Age: 6 YearsMax Age: 90 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is creating a detailed map (atlas) of normal brain activity and structure using MRI and other brain scanning tools, which will serve as a reference to help doctors better identify abnormal brain patterns in patients with neurological or psychiatric conditions. **You may be eligible if...** - You are a healthy adult with no known brain or neurological disorders - You are willing to undergo MRI brain scans and cognitive tests - You are between 18 and 65 years of age (age range may vary) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have any history of neurological or psychiatric disorders - You have metal implants or a pacemaker that make MRI unsafe - You are claustrophobic or cannot tolerate MRI scanning - You are pregnant Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
