Study of heart imaging in people with one pumping ventricle
This study uses routine heart scans (either echocardiogram or MRI) to better understand single-ventricle heart conditions. It may help improve how doctors evaluate and monitor your heart over time.
Durham, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT05273216Recruiting
Study blood vessel injury after clot removal for stroke
This trial looks at how blood flow damage (“reperfusion injury”) happens after mechanical clot removal in certain stroke types. It may help doctors better prevent complications after the procedure.
Graz, StyriaAges 18 years+ - NCT05274919Recruiting
Brain tumor MRI pattern study to map tumor genetics
This study uses special “pattern mapping” from brain MRI scans to see whether MRI images reflect a brain tumor’s genetic type. It may help doctors better match MRI findings to tumor characteristics using scans they may already need for diagnosis.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT05284643Recruiting
MRI-guided radiation and Avastin for recurrent brain glioblastoma
This trial tests whether using special MRI information to plan proton radiation, plus a drug called Avastin (bevacizumab), can help control recurrent glioblastoma (a fast-growing brain tumor) and improve outcomes. It mainly aims to treat tumor that has come back after prior standard radiation, using careful timing and imaging to target it safely.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05298722Recruiting
MRI and blood tests to predict if pancreatic surgery is possible
This study looks at MRI scans, computer-extracted imaging features, and blood/“liquid biopsy” tests after FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy to predict whether surgery can fully remove pancreatic cancer. It may help your care team choose the best next step—whether surgery is likely to be possible and how to plan it.
Ghent, East FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT05304234RecruitingPhase 2
Testing ways to detect liver cancer risk in Native patients
This Phase 2 study focuses on people at higher risk for liver cancer due to liver scarring or chronic hepatitis B. It may help improve screening and outcomes for American Indian and Alaska Native people who could benefit from closer monitoring.
Tahlequah, OklahomaAges 18–75 - NCT05306834Recruiting
Study to slow memory decline by targeting hidden small brain vessel disease
This trial looks at how to slow cognitive decline and early dementia in people with a specific kind of “silent” blood vessel damage in the brain seen on scans. It may help identify whether targeting this hidden condition can protect thinking and memory over time.
BordeauxAges 60–88 - NCT05307939RecruitingPhase 2
Using tumor DNA tests to time treatment for HPV throat cancer
This study checks a blood test that looks for HPV tumor DNA to help doctors decide when to start routine treatment after surgery. It may help some people avoid starting treatment too early or too late based on how the test changes after the operation.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334836Recruiting
Scan for fat in the pancreas and link it to cyst features
This study uses scans to measure how common “fatty change” is in the pancreas. It then looks at whether fatty change is related to specific features of pancreatic cysts (and may also include healthy people).
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges 18 years+ - NCT05359939Recruiting
MRI, CT, and PET scans compared for liver cancer
This study compares different scan types (MRI, CT, and two PET scans) in people with hepatocellular carcinoma (a primary liver cancer). It may help doctors figure out which scan gives the most useful information for diagnosis and treatment planning.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05374278RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET scan test for a dementia brain tracer
This early-phase study tests a new PET scan tracer that targets a brain chemical transport system involved in dementia. It aims to see if the tracer can safely and clearly show brain changes, which could help future dementia diagnosis or tracking.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 40–75 - NCT05386043Recruiting
Study brain tumor testing with MRI and extra tissue samples
This study looks at how brain tumors look on MRI and what biopsy tissue shows, using samples taken during planned surgery. It may help improve understanding of tumor biology and future treatment planning.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05391113Recruiting
Brain-training reward system study for adults with autism
This study tests a “reward system” approach in the brain for adults with autism (and also for adults with food addiction and for healthy volunteers). It may help researchers understand brain and behavior differences and whether this kind of task-based training is safe and useful.
ToursAges 18 years+ - NCT05419960Recruiting
Hearing and balance testing for teens with osteogenesis imperfecta
This study checks how well the inner ear and balance system work in children and young adults with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). The goal is to better understand hearing and balance issues that can affect daily life.
ParisAges 12–20 - NCT05427136Recruiting
Study early lung problems after childhood cancer treatment
This study looks for early lung (breathing) problems in children after certain cancer treatments, using lung tests and sometimes MRI scans. It may help doctors spot breathing complications earlier and guide better care.
BaselAges 4–22 - NCT05428358Recruiting
MRI helps choose which pancreatic cancer patients can have surgery
This trial studies whether adding an MRI scan improves the selection of people with pancreatic cancer who may benefit from surgery. It focuses on patients without liver spread and with tumors that are borderline or likely removable.
AalborgAges 18–99 - 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 - NCT05450783Recruiting
PET-MRI imaging study for arrhythmogenic heart disease
This study uses a special whole-heart scan (PET combined with MRI) to better understand the tissue and metabolism patterns in people with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. The goal is to see whether these scan patterns relate to symptoms now and how the disease may change over time.
AngersAges 16–99 - NCT05473637Recruiting
Study causes of small vessel brain disease in stroke and memory issues
This trial looks at people who may have “small vessel” problems in the brain, which can cause stroke, memory trouble, walking changes, movement symptoms, or headaches. It may help researchers better understand the genetic and non-genetic causes, which could improve future diagnosis and treatment.
