Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06611254Recruiting
Ultrasound to see blood flow in babies getting cooling therapy
This study uses a special ultrasound with a contrast dye to look at blood flow in the brain and kidneys of newborns with birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen) during cooling treatment. It helps doctors understand how cooling affects these organs.
Erlangen, BavariaAges Any age - NCT07422181Recruiting
Ultrasound to see uterine blood vessels after birth
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with contrast dye can help doctors see the small blood vessels in the uterus right after birth. It may improve understanding of the uterus and help prevent bleeding.

Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4 months–2 years - NCT04455932Recruiting
Test shorter MRI versus ultrasound for liver cancer screening
This study compares a shorter, non-contrast MRI and ultrasound to monitor for liver cancer in people with cirrhosis whose ultrasound images aren’t clear enough. It aims to see which method works better and may help you get safer, more reliable follow-up.
Camperdown, New South WalesAges 20–85 - NCT05641935RecruitingPhase 2
Ultrasound scan to check kidney cancer return after ablation
This study tests whether a special ultrasound scan with contrast can help doctors find kidney cancer that comes back after a procedure called ablation. It may help improve monitoring by comparing the ultrasound results with CT or MRI scans done soon after treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05893407Recruiting
Ultrasound test of brain blood flow in ICU injury
This trial tests whether a contrast-enhanced ultrasound can measure blood flow in the brain of people admitted to the ICU for a sudden brain injury. It may help doctors better assess brain damage and guide care using a bedside imaging method.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06171607RecruitingPhase 1
Ultrasound with contrast to help spot breast lumps
This trial uses a special ultrasound with a contrast agent to get clearer images of breast lumps. It may help doctors decide if a lump needs a biopsy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06261814RecruitingPhase 2
Ultrasound to check chemoembolization for liver tumors
This trial uses a special ultrasound with a contrast agent to see how well a liver cancer treatment called TACE is working. It may help doctors better understand if the treatment is shrinking the tumor.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06341062Recruiting
Ultrasound test for kidney injury in the ICU
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with a contrast dye can help doctors better assess acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) in patients in the intensive care unit. If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with acute kidney injury within 24 hours of ICU admission, this imaging test may help guide care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06460142Recruiting
Biomarker study for giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica
This study is looking for biomarkers (biological clues) in people with newly diagnosed or flaring giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). Participating may help researchers find better ways to diagnose and monitor these conditions.
Bonn, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06677554RecruitingPhase 3
Using contrast ultrasound to diagnose ovarian torsion
This trial tests if a special ultrasound with contrast dye can better diagnose ovarian torsion (twisted ovary). It may help women get faster, more accurate treatment.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06775977Recruiting
Ultrasound contrast for bladder cancer staging
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast dye to get a clearer picture of bladder cancer before any treatment. It aims to improve how doctors determine the stage of the cancer, which helps guide the best treatment plan.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06917053Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict kidney injury after trauma
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with contrast agent can help predict if you might develop acute kidney injury after a serious trauma. It focuses on patients in the ICU who have had a major injury and received blood products.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07113808Recruiting
Ultrasound with contrast for children's belly problems
This study tests if a special ultrasound dye is safe and useful in children to look at tumors, injury, or fluid in the belly when other tests haven't given clear answers.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 4 weeks–18 years - NCT07298655Recruiting
3D ultrasound to see new blood vessels in carotid plaque
This trial uses a special 3D ultrasound with contrast dye to look at fatty buildup (plaque) in the neck arteries. It aims to find new, fragile blood vessels in the plaque that might increase stroke risk.
HarrowAges 18 years+ - NCT07324421Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. CT scan for brain blood flow imaging
This study compares a new ultrasound-based method to a standard CT scan for measuring blood flow in the brain. It is designed for people in the ICU or CCU who are already scheduled for a CT scan and could benefit from a simpler, more portable imaging option.
Montpellier, HeraultAges 18 years+ - NCT07335315Recruiting
Ultrasound with contrast for pituitary tumor surgery
This trial is testing a special ultrasound during surgery to see if it can help doctors find pituitary tumors, especially in Cushing's disease. The contrast agent is a tiny bubble that makes the tumor show up better on ultrasound.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT07357571Recruiting
Can ultrasound help predict lymph node spread in early thyroid cancer?
This trial uses contrast-enhanced ultrasound before surgery to see if it can predict whether cancer has spread to lymph nodes in patients with early-stage papillary thyroid cancer. The goal is to improve treatment planning without unnecessary surgery.
Guangdong, GuangzhouAges Any age - NCT07365527Recruiting
Ultrasound and Tumor Response in Colorectal Liver Metastases
This study is testing a new way to use ultrasound to help treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may help doctors see how tumors respond to treatment.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07436364RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Ultrasound to monitor sarcoma response to radiation
This trial uses contrast-enhanced ultrasound to see how well soft tissue sarcoma responds to radiation therapy given before surgery. The goal is to find out if this imaging method can help doctors assess treatment effects earlier.
