Brief Summary:
This is a research study aiming to identify imaging biomarkers in patients diagnosed with spastic paraplegia type 5 (SPG5)
Detailed Description:
"The aim of this study is to identify robust and reliable imaging biomarkers of disease by using novel macrostructural (volumetry), microstructural (fiber tractography) and spectroscopy (metabolites) methods to calculate SPG5 patients biometrics using a commercially available medical software Brain Quant (licence BT-BQ-001-START, market CAIH, CE12331), an approach with a larger effect size than conventional methods."
This study will recruit 10 SPG5 patients. Each participant will be invited to a one-day session during which a clinical examination will performed and an EDSS score will be assigned, followed by a brain and a spine MRI/MRS examination.
Clinical implications: This study will define biomarkers that can be quantified in SPG5 patients and that could be used as read-outs to assay therapeutic effects in clinical trials focused on SPG5 patients
