Ultrasound treatment for mild Lewy body dementia symptoms
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive ultrasound treatment to the head can improve symptoms in people with mild Lewy body dementia. You may be asked to complete memory and thinking tests and follow-up visits to see if symptoms change.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Lewy body dementia
- You are between 50 and 85 years old
- Your memory/thinking test scores match mild range: MMSE 18 to 24 and CDR 0.5
- You can cooperate with study visits and testing
- You should be able to have an MRI scan (no MRI contraindications)

This trial tests a noninvasive magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) treatment for people with dementia with Lewy bodies. The treatment aims to help improve thinking and memory. It involves 1–2 weeks of daily sessions, and you'll have memory tests and brain scans during the study.
This study looks at how brain changes affect attention and thinking in people with Lewy body dementia. It includes brain scans, an EEG, and a medication option to see if it helps with symptoms.
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation method called tACS (transcranial alternating current stimulation) to see if it helps people with Lewy body dementia. It uses mild electrical currents to gently stimulate parts of the brain.
This study tests whether gentle, low-intensity ultrasound waves focused on certain brain areas can help people with early memory loss from Alzheimer's disease. It is a non-invasive treatment that might improve brain function without surgery.
This trial follows people with probable Lewy body dementia over several years to see how the brain changes on MRI and on memory/thinking tests. It may help researchers understand disease progression and improve future care for Lewy body dementia.
This study uses a combination of tests to improve diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies compared to Alzheimer's disease and healthy aging. You may help doctors identify the right diagnosis more accurately.
