Next move in movement disorders: neuroimaging protocols for hyperkinetic movement disorders.

Introduction: The Next Move in Movement Disorders (NEMO) study is an initiative aimed at advancing our understanding and the classification of hyperkinetic movement disorders, including tremor, myoclonus, dystonia, and myoclonus-dystonia. The study has two main objectives: (a) to develop a computer-aided tool for precise and consistent classification of these movement disorder phenotypes, and (b) to deepen our understanding of brain pathophysiology through advanced neuroimaging techniques. This protocol review details the neuroimaging data acquisition and preprocessing procedures employed by the NEMO team to achieve these goals.
