Scientists scan brains to unlock mystery of untreatable depression
NCT ID NCT03537794
Summary
This study aims to understand why some people with major depression don't get better with standard antidepressant medications. Researchers will use MRI and PET brain scans to compare brain chemistry in three groups: people with treatment-resistant depression, people whose depression responds to medication, and healthy individuals. The goal is to gather knowledge about the brain differences in hard-to-treat depression to help guide future treatment development.
