NCT ID NCT05656105
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study uses a special PET scan to look for inflammation in the brains of people with long COVID who have neurological symptoms like brain fog or headaches. Researchers will compare these scans with those from healthy volunteers to better understand how the virus may affect the brain. The goal is to learn more about long COVID, not to test a treatment.
