Recruiting studies
- NCT07781579Recruiting
MRI study to predict bleeding risk in moyamoya disease

Adaptive radiation for advanced throat cancer
This study tests an approach called “adaptive radiotherapy,” where the radiation plan may be adjusted based on how your tumor and anatomy look during treatment. It is for adults with biopsy-proven oropharyngeal (throat) squamous cell carcinoma who are planning curative radiation, with or without chemotherapy.
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT03504956Recruiting
MRI study to map early heart artery plaque changes
This study uses an MRI scan to better “see and measure” early changes in the heart’s artery lining. It may help researchers understand coronary artery disease earlier, even before it causes symptoms.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07727512Recruiting
PCOS and Brain Health
This study uses brain imaging (MRI) to compare brain health in people with PCOS versus healthy volunteers. It aims to understand how PCOS may affect the brain and potentially guide future treatments.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18–45 - NCT06210555Recruiting

MRI study of blood-vessel and tissue signs in child liver disease
This trial uses MRI scans to look for “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs in the liver, to better understand autoimmune liver diseases in children and teens. It may help doctors track disease and improve care by finding imaging patterns linked to illness.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 6–23 - NCT07770659Recruiting
Using MRI to detect early heart transplant rejection
This study tests whether a heart MRI can detect early signs of organ rejection after a heart transplant. If successful, it could reduce the need for frequent biopsies.

How naps may improve motor learning after stroke or in healthy adults
This study tests whether taking a nap can improve how well people learn a movement task. It may help you understand how sleep affects “motor learning,” both in healthy volunteers and after stroke.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT04861077RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET/MRI monitoring for PD-L1–positive triple-negative breast cancer
This early-phase study uses advanced PET/MRI scans to monitor how immunotherapy treatment works in people with triple-negative breast cancer that is PD-L1 positive. It may help doctors better track tumor changes in the body over time.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT04073966Recruiting
MRI markers for memory changes after brain radiation
This study uses MRI scans to look at how radiation treatment for newly diagnosed brain metastases affects thinking and memory. It aims to understand the effects better, which may help guide future treatment.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03729115Recruiting
Enhanced breast cancer screening for high-risk women
This study tests a more thorough breast cancer screening program using MRI and other imaging for women at high risk. It aims to detect cancer earlier, which may improve treatment options and outcomes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 25 years+ - NCT07226453RecruitingPhase 2
Metformin for recurrent PFA ependymoma
This trial tests if metformin can help treat a certain type of brain tumor called PFA ependymoma that has come back after surgery and radiation. It's for people ages 1 to 39 who are healthy enough for surgery or have tumors that can be measured on scans.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–39 - NCT07325292RecruitingPhase 3
Frexalimab injection vs IV for multiple sclerosis
This study tests if a new injection (frexalimab) works as well as the IV version for people with relapsing or certain types of secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. It could offer a more convenient way to receive this treatment at home.
Cullman, AlabamaAges 18–60 - NCT06014905RecruitingPhase 1
Better MRI imaging for meningioma
This trial tests a new type of MRI scan that may help see meningioma brain tumors more clearly. It is a short imaging study for people who plan to have surgery or monitoring.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07762976RecruitingPhase 2
Tailoring chemo for nasopharyngeal cancer using EBV-DNA and MRI
This trial tests whether adjusting chemotherapy based on tumor markers (EBV-DNA) and MRI scans can improve outcomes and reduce side effects for people with nasopharyngeal cancer. If you have stage II or III disease, this study might help guide your treatment more precisely.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT03153670Recruiting
Brain scan study for people with deep brain stimulators
This study uses a 3‑tesla MRI (a type of detailed brain scan) in people who have deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes. The goal is to improve understanding of how the brain works; the scan is not meant to provide direct treatment benefit.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–85 - NCT04991454RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon mri to image lung blood flow in pulmonary hypertension
This trial uses a special MRI scan with xenon gas to take detailed images of how blood moves through your lungs. It aims to see if this imaging can help doctors better understand and manage pulmonary hypertension, which is high blood pressure in the lungs.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT06846853RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two contrast dyes for pituitary MRI
This trial compares two contrasting dyes (gadopiclenol and gadobutrol) used during pituitary MRI scans to see which one provides clearer images. It is for adults with known or suspected pituitary lesions that disrupt the blood-brain barrier.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 19 years+ - NCT06538584RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Caffeine added to sedation for faster MRI recovery in children
This study tests whether adding caffeine to the usual sedation medicine helps children recover faster after an MRI. It looks at how quickly kids wake up and can go home.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 3–12 - NCT06191731Recruiting
How the body gets rid of MRI contrast dye
This study looks at how gadolinium, a contrast agent used in MRI scans, leaves the body through urine. It aims to learn more about how the drug is processed.
Metz, Grand EstAges 18 years+ - NCT05929898Recruiting
Brain training with MRI for motivation in healthy adults
This study tests whether a special MRI technique can help people learn to control brain areas linked to motivation. It may lead to better treatments for motivational problems.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–45 - NCT06199479RecruitingPhase 1
Using imaging to tell real tumor growth from treatment effects
This trial uses special imaging to tell the difference between real brain tumor growth and a treatment reaction that looks like a tumor. It may help you and your doctor decide if a biopsy is needed.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06093724Recruiting
Imaging pelvic changes after gender-affirming surgery

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mri?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 943 recruiting mri studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a mri trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a mri trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
