Recruiting studies
- NCT04540107RecruitingPhase 1
MRI scan study to characterize lower-grade brain tumors
This Phase 1 study uses special MRI scans (including a form of MR spectroscopy) to better understand lower-grade gliomas. It is designed to test how well the imaging can “characterize” the tumor and to improve understanding for treatment planning.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04649008RecruitingEarly Phase 1
MRI and brain electrodes to map epilepsy areas
This early study looks at how MRI scans and implanted brain electrodes (intracranial EEG) can pinpoint where seizures start, especially in the temporal (side) lobe. It may help doctors better localize seizure sources for people whose seizures don’t respond well to medications.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04763109Recruiting
MRI scan with AI to spot early changes in NF1 children
This study uses special MRI scans plus computer (AI) analysis to look for early, possibly cancer-related skin or tissue changes in children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). If it works, it could help doctors detect concerning changes earlier and plan care sooner.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 5–17 - NCT04771806Recruiting
MRI-guided adaptive radiation for high-grade brain tumors
This study uses repeated MRI scans with a contrast dye to help doctors tailor (adapt) your radiation treatment over time for a high-grade glioma. It may help improve how accurately radiation targets the tumor as it changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04880226Recruiting
MRI scan used safely during guided ablation planning
This study checks whether a special kind of MRI scan is safe enough to use during planning for an MRI-guided ablation procedure. It may help improve how these procedures are done while keeping additional risk low.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04993196Recruiting
Brain MRI T1rho scan in healthy adults
This study checks a specific MRI measurement (called T1rho) in healthy people. It helps researchers understand how this scan works and what it can show, using volunteers rather than patients.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT05042687Recruiting
Compare a breast imaging scan with MRI in high-risk women
This study compares two ways of imaging the breast—molecular breast imaging (a scan that uses a small radioactive tracer) and standard breast MRI—to better find or rule out breast cancer. You may join if you are considered high risk and already have a breast MRI planned, and you can do both tests close together.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05118555Recruiting
Tests new MRI scan methods during routine scans
This study checks whether new MRI scan techniques work and add useful information. It may help your care by improving MRI methods, but you would need extra scan time/data for the test.
Sutton, SurreyAges 18 years+ - NCT05147649Recruiting
Brain scan study in severe sleep apnea without CPAP
This trial uses a specialized brain scan (MRI) to study people with severe obstructive sleep apnea who are not using CPAP. It also compares them with people who do not have sleep apnea to understand how brain function differs.
ReimsAges 18–75 - NCT05287750Recruiting
Brain disease study using 7.0T brain MRI scans
This study looks at people with brain conditions using a very strong MRI scanner (7.0T). It may help doctors understand brain diseases better and improve how scans are used, but you must be able to safely have the MRI (and possibly contrast dye).
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT05384535Recruiting
Test a special MRI to screen high-risk prostate cancer
This study checks whether a detailed MRI method can help find prostate cancer earlier in people considered high risk. You may be asked to get an MRI and help the team see if it works well as a screening test.
Lake Success, New YorkAges 40–55 - NCT05447273Recruiting
MRI to plan less invasive surgery for penile cancer
This trial studies how functional MRI scans (a special MRI that shows how tissues work) can help doctors plan surgery for newly diagnosed penile squamous cell cancer. It may help more people get organ-sparing surgery, which aims to remove the cancer while preserving as much function as possible.
OsloAges Any age - NCT05704062Recruiting
Breast MRI during chemotherapy to measure treatment response
This study uses breast MRI scans to see whether neoadjuvant (before-surgery) chemotherapy is working. If you qualify, you’ll have MRI scans to help doctors understand how your breast cancer responds to standard treatment.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT05710380Recruiting
MRI scans to guide biopsy for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study tests whether special MRI “risk maps” can help doctors better identify suspicious areas in the prostate during diagnosis. If you’re having an MRI followed by an MRI-guided biopsy, this may help improve how the biopsy targets areas of concern.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05882253Recruiting
Test MRI-guided biopsy for early prostate cancer detection
This study uses a special MRI-guided (MRI-fusion) needle biopsy to look for early prostate cancer. It may help find concerning areas more accurately before cancer spreads.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05897645Recruiting
MRI study of artery plaque after recent stroke
This trial uses special brain MRI to look closely at plaque in certain brain arteries after an ischemic stroke (when a blood vessel is blocked). It may help researchers better understand which plaques are most dangerous soon after stroke.
ShenyangAges 40 years+ - NCT05902507Recruiting
MRI guidance during breast cancer radiation treatment
This trial studies using MRI images to help plan and guide radiation therapy after breast-conserving surgery. It may help doctors target the right area more accurately while keeping treatment standard and safe.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05961982Recruiting
EUS-guided heat treatment for pancreatic cysts
This study tests whether an endoscopy-based “radiofrequency ablation” (controlled heating) can manage certain pancreatic cysts that look high-risk. It’s designed for people who are not good candidates for surgery, aiming to shrink or control the cyst safely.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05962177Recruiting
Study of blood tests and scans in relapsing-remitting MS
This study follows adults with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis using MRI scans and blood tests. It aims to understand how the disease behaves and what markers in blood and imaging may relate to changes over time.
MontpellierAges 18–59 - NCT05975593Recruiting
Study how radiation affects tumor biology in cervical or pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how radiotherapy changes the tumor environment, using lab samples collected during treatment. It may help researchers understand why radiation works differently for different people and could improve future treatment planning.
