First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study uses a special PET scan to look for brain inflammation in people with long COVID who have neurological symptoms like brain fog or headaches. Researchers will compare 60 participants (both long COVID patients and healthy volunteers) to see if inflammation is linked to these symptoms. The goal is to better understand how COVID-19 affects the brain, not to test a treatment.
