Brain study seeks to unravel mysteries of optic ataxia
NCT ID NCT03286686
First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study looks at how a brain region called the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) helps us combine vision and body awareness to guide hand movements. People with optic ataxia, caused by damage to this area, have trouble reaching for objects and may also have perception issues. Researchers will compare 160 patients and healthy volunteers using behavioral tests to understand these problems and their impact on daily life.
