Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: A

This assessment will be planned in the year after the consent signAll patients will have one brain MRI performed in Henri Mondor Hospital on a 3T MR unit (Skyra, Siemens, Erlangen). The procedure will include:

  1. a 3D-FLAIR imaging
  2. a morphometric study based on a 3DT1 MPRAGE gradient echo sequence (TR / TI / TE = 2300/900 /2.9 ms)
  3. an analysis of the anatomic connectivity of the patient's brain assessed using a 1.5mm isotopic DTI with a high number of directions (HARDI / 65 directions / b=1500s/mm2).
  4. An evaluation of neuronal dysfunction using MR Spectroscopy. Spectroscopic data will be collected using a 2D CSI laser with a short TE technique.
  5. Magnetization transfer imaging providing information about integrity of membranes.
