Brain scan study for cognitive problems in schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses a special brain scan (functional MRI) to look at how the brain works in people with schizophrenia and how it relates to memory and thinking problems. It may help improve understanding of cognitive symptoms and could lead to better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses brain scans to look at how a specific brain area works in schizophrenia. If you qualify, it may help researchers better understand the brain changes linked to symptoms.
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 measures brain signals during scans to look for patterns linked to two types (subforms) of psychotic disorders. If you have schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and your symptoms have been stable, you may be able to help researchers understand these brain markers.
This study uses brain scans (MRI and EEG) to better understand Alzheimer's disease. It compares people with MCI or Alzheimer's to healthy volunteers to see how the disease affects the brain.
This study looks at the brain's wiring to better understand cognitive difficulties in people with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or depression. If you join, you'll undergo brain imaging and thinking tests to help develop better ways to screen and treat these conditions.
This study looks at how computer-based thinking exercises might improve memory and attention in people with schizophrenia. It uses brain scans (MRI) to see if these exercises change how the brain works.
