Brain scans unlock Parkinson's walking mystery
NCT ID NCT05459753
Summary
This study aims to understand how changes in specific brain chemicals over time relate to walking difficulties, balance problems, and cognitive changes in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will use special brain scans (PET imaging) at the start of the study and again two years later in about 125 participants with Parkinson's or related conditions. The goal is to gather knowledge about the brain's role in these symptoms to inform future treatments, not to test a new therapy directly.
