Primary Endpoint
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in healthy, obese volunteers while they performed a working memory task: changes in cerebral blood flow

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The objective is to investigate neuro-anatomical correlates of the regulation of energy intake by means of functional MRI before and after bariatric surgery. Administration of glucose as well as fructose is followed by functional brain MRI, and findings are correlated with serum glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) levels as an endogenous satiety signal in obese humans.
