7-Tesla brain scans to map networks for Parkinson’s DBS
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses a very strong MRI (7-tesla) to analyze how parts of the brain connect in people with Parkinson’s who already have deep brain stimulation (DBS). It may help researchers better understand DBS and how it works in the brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be older than 18 years
- Have Parkinson’s disease of unknown cause (idiopathic Parkinson’s)
- Have already had STN DBS implanted (stimulation to the subthalamic nucleus)
- Be able to provide written informed consent

This study uses advanced brain imaging (7-Tesla MRI and MEG) to understand how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects brain networks in people with Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. It helps doctors learn how DBS works so they can improve treatment in the future.
This trial is for adults with Parkinson’s who already have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device and who can have 7‑Tesla (7T) brain imaging. The study uses the MRI pictures to help researchers learn more about Parkinson’s and how the brain changes with treatment.
This study looks at brain signals in people with Parkinson's who are already scheduled for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. The goal is to better understand how certain brain pathways work, which could lead to improved treatments.
This study uses a brain scan called MEG to look at how Parkinson's disease and impulse control disorders affect brain networks in people who have already had deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. You will be asked to delay your morning medication so the researchers can study your brain without the effects of the drugs.
This study records brain activity during deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery for Parkinson's disease to better understand how the brain controls actions. It might help improve future treatments.
This study uses MRI scans to look at brain activity in people with Parkinson's disease who have a Medtronic Percept DBS device. The goal is to better understand how deep brain stimulation works.
