Assessing brain function with an ultrasound in a day hospital
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial studies brain function in people who are already going to a day hospital for memory and thinking assessments. It may help researchers better understand cognitive problems and improve how they are evaluated. You would likely be asked to complete an ultrasound exam of the brain and allow your information to be used for the study.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are currently scheduled to use the day hospital service at CHU Tours MRRC for cognitive (thinking/memory) testing.
- You are willing to have a brain ultrasound (TPI ultrasound) during the study.
- You agree to let the study team use and process your data.
- You are not under legal/judicial protection.
- You do not refuse the ultrasound exam. If you refuse, you cannot join.

This study uses memory and thinking tests along with brain scans (likely MRI) to understand how different types of brain damage affect thinking. It may help doctors learn more about brain-related cognitive problems.
This trial tests a new 3D ultrasound technique to get clearer images of blood flow in the brain after a stroke, which could help doctors better understand and treat the damage.
This trial tests whether a gentle ultrasound treatment aimed at the brain can help people with severe depression that hasn't improved with at least two prior medications. It's a first small study to see if the approach is safe and promising.
This study tests whether low-intensity focused ultrasound changes brain activity signals measured on an MRI scan. It is done in healthy people to better understand how ultrasound may affect the brain without surgery.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method called TUS to see if it can improve memory and thinking in people with schizophrenia. It focuses on a brain circuit that connects the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.
This study tests if a non-invasive ultrasound treatment can help memory in people with mild cognitive impairment (mNCD) and healthy older adults. It involves MRI scans and focused ultrasound sessions.
