NCT ID NCT07213219

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study will use PET-MRI brain scans to compare the reward system in 44 Parkinson's patients, some of whom have a sleep disorder called RBD. The goal is to understand why some patients develop impulse control problems, like gambling or compulsive behaviors, as a side effect of their medication. By identifying brain differences, doctors hope to personalize treatment and reduce these risks.
