Neuronal and Sensory Perception of Fat

University Hospital Tuebingen

Study type: Interventional

Funder types: Other

Identifiers

NCT02213406

Details and patient eligibility

About

This project will examine neuronal and sensory fat perception. Our hypothesis is that subjects being either hypersensitive or hyposensitive for fat will show different brain activities. Therefore the investigators will conduct functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and fat detection threshold tests examining neuronal and sensory fat perception.
