Visual hallucinations in Lewy body diseases
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at why some people with Lewy body diseases (like Parkinson's or dementia with Lewy bodies) see things that aren't there. It uses brain scans and tests to learn more, which might help improve future care.

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 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 looks at how brain function changes over time in people with Lewy body disease or Alzheimer's. Researchers will use memory tests, MRI scans, and EEG (a painless brain-wave recording) to track these changes, and you will need a family member or friend to help report on your daily life.
This trial tests a gentle, non-invasive ultrasound treatment for people with mild dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). The ultrasound is aimed at the brain to see if it can improve symptoms, and it does not require surgery.
This study looks at how to distinguish Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy body dementia, and Parkinson’s disease when someone has memory and thinking problems. It may help doctors choose the most accurate diagnosis and treatment path for the right condition.
This study explores how Parkinson's disease affects visual and emotional abilities. It aims to understand these challenges better to improve future care.
