This project will explore the involvement of the serotonin system in the pathophysiology of PD-related central pain. Thus, the serotonin system will be evaluated in PD patients with and without central pain who will benefit from brain positron emission tomography (PET) allowing in vivo imaging of 5HT1A receptors and multimodal brain MRI including morphometric imaging and functional connectivity (r…
This project will explore the involvement of the serotonin system in the pathophysiology of PD-related central pain. Thus, the serotonin system will be evaluated in PD patients with and without central pain who will benefit from brain positron emission tomography (PET) allowing in vivo imaging of 5HT1A receptors and multimodal brain MRI including morphometric imaging and functional connectivity (resting state acquisition).
