Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT03331380Recruiting
Low-energy MRI study for people with or without heart disease
This study tests a special MRI method that uses lower energy exposure. It aims to improve how well researchers can scan the heart and other organs while keeping the scan as safe and comfortable as possible.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12 months–30 years - NCT02740868RecruitingPhase 2
Breathing MRI using xenon gas to study lungs
This trial uses a special breathing MRI (you breathe a gas mixture) to measure how well your lungs work. It studies healthy kids and people with lung conditions like cystic fibrosis or asthma, and it may help researchers better understand lung function and flare-ups.
Toronto, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT02316314Recruiting
Study heart scan and function in people with Friedreich’s ataxia
This study uses heart tests (including ultrasound and MRI) to better understand how Friedreich’s ataxia affects the heart. You might benefit by getting detailed heart evaluation and contributing to research that could guide future care.
New York, New YorkAges 12–50 - NCT02526368RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Scan your prostate with special MRI using pyruvate to find high-grade cancer
This trial tests whether a specialized MRI scan using a pyruvate tracer can better detect high-grade (more aggressive) prostate cancer. It may help doctors find cancer more accurately and guide treatment decisions or targeted follow-up.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06185972RecruitingPhase 2
MRI-guided ultrasound radiation for breast and chest cancer
This trial tests a new way to give radiation therapy using MRI imaging and ultrasound to make the radiation more targeted and potentially safer. If you have chest-wall or breast cancer and are already scheduled for radiation, this approach might offer a more precise treatment option.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06041659Recruiting
Brain network changes during moyamoya bypass surgery
This study uses MRI scans to watch how brain networks work while you are asleep during moyamoya bypass surgery. It may help doctors understand how the brain adjusts after the procedure.
