Researchers at Mayo Clinic want to understand how the brain, memory, thinking, and movement change in people with Lewy Body Disease or Alzheimer's Disease. This study will compare brain activity and brain structure in patients with these conditions to healthy volunteers, using brain scans, brain wave recordings, and muscle activity measurements.
Lewy Body Disease and Alzheimer's Disease affect millions of people, but we still don't fully understand how these diseases damage the brain and cause problems with memory, thinking, and movement. This research aims to identify differences in brain activity and structure that could help doctors diagnose these conditions earlier and develop better treatments.

If you join this study, you will undergo a physical and neurological exam, have a brain MRI scan, and complete recordings of your brain waves (EEG) and muscle activity (EMG). The study compares three groups: people with Lewy Body Disease, people with Alzheimer's Disease, and healthy volunteers. All participants will receive copies of the consent forms and can withdraw from the study at any time. A family member or caregiver is encouraged to participate to help researchers understand how you function in daily life.
