brainQuant detection of white matter changes on diffusion MRI linked to head injuries in professional soccer players
We will test whether brainQuant can spot white matter changes on diffusion MRI that might indicate past head injuries in professional soccer players near retirement.
-
Using F-18 Flornaptitril PET scans to see brain protein patterns in people with MCI from suspected CTE or Alzheimer's
This study will test whether F-18 Flornaptitril PET scans can predict clinical worsening in people with mild cognitive impairment suspected to be due to chronic traumatic encephalopathy or Alzheimer's disease.
-
Examining brain function decline in professional athletes after concussions
This study is trying to see how repeated concussions affect brain function in retired professional athletes and what that might mean for their long-term health.
-
Treatment for neurologic disorders using stem cells
This study is testing whether using stem cells from patients' own bone marrow can help improve brain and nerve function in people with serious neurologic disorders that don't respond well to regular treatments.
