The goal of the project is to validate the developed standardized atrophy measurement method at VU University Medical Centre in patients with MS. This is done by testing how well the measurements of atrophy agree between different scanners and…
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the differences in [18F]FEOBV binding between PD patients and healthy control subjects, in order to evaluate the clinical feasibility of [18F]FEOBV as a cholinergic imaging ligand in PD. Secondary…
The primary objective is to assess neuropsychological function in X-ALD patients without active cerebral demyelinating disease. Data of minors will be compared to matched healthy controls. Data of adults will be compared to reference values. The…
The primary objective is to obtain OCT data for children aged 4 to 10 diagnosed with non-syndromic craniosynostosis and to compare these to the normal reference values.
Objective 1: To prospectively evaluate the utility of C-FLOW monitor to examine status of regional CBF and reperfusion in patients presenting with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke syndrome. Objective 2: To assess the feasibility,…
The main goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of using 1) passive treadmill belt speed perturbations to measure spinal reflex activity in the calf muscles; and 2) active real-time visual feedback on dedicated gait parameters to highlight…
Primary:The primary objectives of the study are to estimate and rank-order the longitudinal standardized mean changes over 6 months and over 12 months, for a set of novel outcome measures administered to subjects with ALS, in order to identify…
Distinguishing frontal lobe epilepsy from ADHD in terms of working memory.
Primary objective:To show that addition of dead space to low-pressure nCPAP (which is usually not effective but can be relatively well tolerated) makes the therapy effective and diminishes the apnea hypopnea index with >10/hour in patients…
The general goal of our study is to unravel the anatomical and functional correlates of tinnitus in the human brain using structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We will use a high-field (7 T) MRI scanner and obtain a) detailed…
Protocol page 17The Mapping for Transvenous Phrenic Nerve Stimulation Study (MAPS) is being conducted to evaluate the feasibility of transvascular stimulation of phrenic nerves via an EP catheter advanced into the great veins.
The main objective of this study is to depict microglial activation behind a closed BBB in vivo and possibly establish an imaging marker of fast clinical progression, we will aim at visualizing microglial activity in vivo in cortical and hippocampal…
To evaluate whether neuromuscular ultrasound discriminates between patients with and without ICU-AW.To detect differences between patients that do and do not have ICU-AW in order to determine relevant cut-offs which can be used in future diagnostic…
This protocol is the next step in development of a reproducible technique for the quantification of CBF using simultaneous ultrasound at the internal carotid artery. We hypothesize that simultaneous measurement of the contrast signal in the internal…
To ascertain the hypothesis that T-cell inflammation in the vascular wall of an unruptured intracranial aneurysm can be accurately detected with 18F-IL2 PET (proof-of-concept).
The aim of this study is to analyse the analgetic effect of a local injection in the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve ( LFCN) with methylprednisolone/lidocaine (M/L) after localisation through elektro stimulation VS placebo. In this trial we hope to…
Primary Objective: - To gain insight on the underlying mechanisms of the variability of the response to ATN-DBS in patients with AED refractory epilepsySecondary Objective(s): - To gain insight in the neurophysiology of the anterior thalamic nucleus…
The objective of the study is to investigate if it is possible to predict the clinical outcome of a patient with SCN1A related epilepsy based on the findings of advanced genotyping. We aim to answer the following questions:1. Can clinical outcome in…
The primary objective of this trial are to assess the clinical usefulness (in terms of sensitivity and positive predictive value of 1. Combined heart rate and movement detection2. And the added value of video and audio detection in a population of…
The primary objective is to study if quantitative (3- and 7-Tesla) MRI protocols (MRI perfusion, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and chemical shift imaging (CSI)) are able to detect phenotype conversion earlier than conventional MRI. Results will be…
