Diagnosis and Natural History Study of Patients With Neurological Conditions
Diagnosis and Natural History Study of Patients With Neurological Conditions
The purpose of this study is to improve understanding of neurological conditions. Patients
 participating in this study will continue receiving medical care, routine laboratory tests,
 and diagnostics tests (X-rays, CT-scans, and nuclear imaging), from their primary care
 physician. Doctors at the NIH plan to follow these patients and offer advice and assistance
 to their primary care physicians.
The objective of this protocol is to provide diagnosis and follow Experimental Therapeutics
 Branch (ETB) patients not currently entered on another research protocol. No investigational
 treatments will be administered on this protocol, and the NIH physicians will be playing
 largely a consultative role to the patient's primary physician.
INCLUSION CRITERIA:

 Patients may be included on this protocol if they have an identifiable neurological
 disorder or represent a diagnostic puzzle. These disorders would include patients with
 Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear
 palsy, restless legs syndrome, other cognitive and movement disorders, and diagnostic
 puzzles.

 Patients 18-90 years of age, inclusive, are eligible.
