Purpose
The purpose of this study is to comprehensively characterize PMS using standardized medical,
cognitive, and behavioral measures and to track the natural history of the syndrome using
repeated longitudinal assessments. In addition, this study will be aiming to identify
biomarkers using neuroimaging, including diffusion tensor imaging and identify genetic
factors which contribute to diverse phenotypes in patients with PMS.
