New brain scan seeks to unlock secrets of Parkinson's

NCT ID NCT06098612

Summary

This study is testing a new type of brain scan to see if it can detect clumps of a specific protein linked to Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, and multiple system atrophy. Researchers will give participants a small amount of a radioactive tracer and then perform a PET/MRI scan to see where it goes in the brain. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors better understand and potentially diagnose these conditions in the future.
