NCT03931148

Brief Summary

IMAGISION aims to explore, in a cohort of patients referred for geriatric consultation for neurocognitive evaluation, the contribution of functional neuroimaging (functional MRI and, if possible, high resolution EEG) to geriatric expertise, associated with the performance of a battery of neuropsychological tests in the evaluation of decision-making capacity.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Estimation of concordance/disordance between the standardized global gerontological evaluation and the objectification of the activation zones of prefrontal ventromedial and dorsolateral cortex by functional imaging

    The cohort data will be compared between patients identified as " questionable ability " according to the clinical evaluation (reference) and the neuroimaging evaluation, in order to see if the imaging allows to reclassify patients as " able ". A 10 % diagnostic gain in expected. Concerning functional neuroimaging (Balloon Analog Risk Task): The lack of activation of specific brain areas during period of interest will be considered as "compatible with the ability to make decisions" on neuro-functional imaging, while patients who do not activate the ROIs in the same situation will be considered as "compatible with questionable decision-making ability". Concerning standardized geriatric assessment: At the end of the initial consultation, based on his clinical examination, interview and standardized neuropsychological assessment, the geriatrician will classify each patient either as " preserved decision-making ability " or " questionable decision-making ability ".

Masking Details
Analyses of functional imaging results (MRI and/or EEG) will be carried out blindly from the results of the geriatric assessment of decision-making ability. The results between the geriatrician's assessment of decision-making ability and the results of functional imaging tests will then be compared.
