Brain scan study of impulse control in bipolar disorder and depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses brain scans (MRI) to look at how people with bipolar disorder or depression control their impulses. It may help doctors understand these conditions better and could lead to improved treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how people with bipolar disorder pay attention and respond to rewards, including whether anxiety or substance use is also present. It uses eye-tracking and related tests to better understand brain patterns that may affect mood and decision-making.
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 trial studies a way to change how excitable the brain is (through in-person brain stimulation) in people with major depression. It may help understand new treatments or symptom patterns that could be useful for major depression.
This study uses brain-signal targeting (likely with MRI) to see whether it can improve certain symptoms of depression. You may be able to join if you’re 18–65 and currently have a depressive episode, and if you can safely complete the scan.
This study enrolls patients who are able to understand the study and voluntarily agree to participate in writing. It aims to learn from participants to improve research and innovation related to bipolar illness and care.
