Predicting breast cancer with the BRAVE system
This trial is testing a new way to predict breast cancer risk using breast density from your recent mammogram. It may help people with a new breast finding and who haven't had prior breast procedures.
Sherbrooke, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04144894Recruiting
Kidney ultrasound and health measurements for people without diabetes or high blood pressure
This trial looks at how well a “kidney ultrasound index” (a measurement from an ultrasound and health factors) can reflect kidney health. It may help researchers better understand which people are most likely to stay healthy and who may be at risk.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 19 years+ - NCT06306976Enrolling by invitation
Shear-wave test before hernia surgery
This trial uses a special ultrasound (shear-wave elastography) to measure tissue stiffness before and after hernia repair. It aims to see if this test can predict complications and help choose the best surgical approach.
Greenville, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05957679Recruiting
Check how well an MRI test shows spinal tumor surgery challenges
This study looks at an MRI-type scan (called MRE) to measure stiffness and “adhesion” around spinal cord tumor surgery. It may help doctors plan surgery better by predicting what the tumor area will feel like and how it may stick to nearby tissues.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT05692024RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Coffee and gut bacteria study after colon or rectal cancer
This early-phase study tests whether a coffee-related approach can change gut bacteria and blood “metabolites” after treatment for stage I–III colon or rectal cancer. The goal is to learn if these changes could help improve health after standard cancer treatment.
