Clinical Trial: Functional Imaging and Reading Deficit in Children With NF1

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional

Official Title: Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Reading Deficit in Children With NF1 Children

Brief Summary: A monocenter pilot study on the acceptability and feasibility of a functional MRI protocol in children with NF1 with or without reading disabilities.

Detailed Summary: The principal aim of the study is to highlight the activation of brain area involved phonological and visuo-spatial processing in children with NF1 with or without reading disabilities.
Sponsor: University Hospital, Toulouse

Current Primary Outcome: Percentage of children performing in full the protocol functional MRI [ Time Frame: day 1 ]

Study the acceptability and feasibility of a functional MRI protocol in children with NF1 with or without reading disabilities.


Original Primary Outcome: Same as current

Current Secondary Outcome: blood flow in milliliters per minute [ Time Frame: day 1 ]

Comparison of brain activations involved in phonological and visuo-spatial processing in 2 groups in children with NF1.

1 group with reading disability and 1 group without reading disability Search for a link between the presence of a large deletion of the gene and learning disorders.



Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
