A longitudinal study of imaging biomarkers in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS)

Recruiting

The purpose of the study is to test new biomarkers of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) using MRI scans at 3 tesla (3T). Identifying biomarkers of a disease can lead to a better understanding of the disease as well as improved treatments.
