Study Summary
This trial is testing a new deep learning platform to see if it can accurately diagnose dystonia.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with various forms of dystonia or conditions that resemble dystonic symptoms, such as Parkinson's disease and essential tremor. It includes people of all ages, genders, and ethnic backgrounds. Those who can't give consent or have MRI-incompatible body modifications or devices are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing DystoniaNet, a deep learning platform designed to diagnose isolated dystonia by analyzing medical data. The research will look back at past cases and also include new patients to validate the accuracy of this diagnostic tool.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves diagnosis rather than treatment, there are no direct side effects from interventions like medications. However, participants may experience discomfort or anxiety during the diagnostic procedures.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Prospective clinical validation of DystoniaNetExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Prospective randomized studies will validate DystoniaNet performance for accurate, objective, and fast diagnosis of dystonia in the actual clinical setting.
Group II: Retrospective clinical validation of DystoniaNetActive Control1 Intervention
Retrospective studies will (1) clinically validate the diagnostic performance of DystoniaNet compared to a normal neurological state (normative test), and (2) develop and test DystoniaNet extensions in comparison with other neurological and non-neurological conditions (differential test).
