Neuropsychological and Brain Medical Imaging Study in Patients With Brain Damage 2

Anatomical Clinical Correlations. Neuropsychological and Brain Medical Imaging Study in Brain Damage Subjects 2 (CORAC2)


Sponsor

University Hospital, Caen

Enrollment

400 participants

Start Date

Jan 10, 2019

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Two groups of subjects will be constitute: (i) patients with circumscribed brain injury (including stroke, vascular malformations, tumor or circumscribed infectious lesions) or degenerative/developmental disorders and selective cognitive disorders; (ii) healthy control subjects. The objective of this project is to evaluate specific neuropsychological deficits and apply current brain imaging techniques (anatomical, diffusion, functional, magnetic stimulation) to patients suffering from these cognitive deficits due to brain damage, in order to elucidate the brain mechanisms underlying these deficits.

Exclusion Criteria3

  • For healthy volunteers: previous neurological history (except non complicated migraine or epilepsy), previous psychiatric history (except depression with good evolution or anxiety), or severe cranial traumatism
  • For patients: vigilance disorders, severe depression or anxiety.
