About this study
Official title: Anatomical Clinical Correlations. Neuropsychological and Brain Medical Imaging Study in Brain Damaged Subjects.
Two groups of subjects will be constitute: (i) patients with circumscribed brain injury (including stroke, vascular malformations, tumor or circumscribed infectious lesions) or degenerative disorders and selective cognitive disorders; (ii) healthy control subjects.
The objective of this project is to evaluate specific neuropsychological deficits and apply current brain imaging techniques (anatomical, diffusion, functional) to patients suffering from these cognitive deficits due to brain damage, in order to elucidate the brain mechanisms underlying these deficits.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Neuropsychological testingBehavioural
Experimental test about cognitive deficit of interest and standard neuropsychological tests.
MRIOther
Anatomical, diffusion, and/or functional MRI
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| brain damaged subjects | Experimental | patients with circumscribed brain injury, selective disorders of cognitive development or degenerative disorders responsible for focal troubles Receives: Behavioral: Neuropsychological testing; Other: MRI |
| healthy volunteers | Sham comparator | healthy controls Receives: Behavioral: Neuropsychological testing; Other: MRI |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Cognitive deficit
The cognitive deficit of interest will depend on the localization of the brain lesion. The outcome measure could be a standardized neuropsychological test or an experimental test specifically elaborated for this protocol.
Measured: 3 to 6 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Neuropsychological testing and MRI in people with Cerebrovascular Disorders and Brain Lesions, run by University Hospital, Rouen at 1 site in France.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Cognitive deficit (time frame: 3 to 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Feb 2026.
