Brain scan study for thinking problems in schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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.
