Brain scans to study thinking in schizophrenia and depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses brain imaging to better understand how thinking works in people with schizophrenia or major depression. Your results may help researchers learn what brain patterns match different thinking and symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses a brain scan called magnetoencephalography (MEG) to understand brain activity in people with schizophrenia. It may help researchers learn more about the condition and could lead to better treatments.
This study looks at how psychiatric and neurological conditions affect thinking and memory skills. By comparing patients with healthy volunteers, researchers hope to better understand these cognitive problems and find new ways to help.
This study uses a special brain scan (functional MRI) to look at how schizophrenia affects thinking and memory. It may help researchers understand why some people with schizophrenia have trouble with concentration, planning, or remembering things.
This study uses advanced MRI scans and visual perception tests to learn more about severe mental disorders like depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. It aims to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
This study uses brain scans to understand why thinking and memory problems happen in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression. It may help find better ways to diagnose or treat these conditions.
This study uses brain scans and real-life surveys to understand how people with or without schizophrenia make decisions. It may help researchers learn how the brain works differently in schizophrenia.
