New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05566392Recruiting
Studying long-term recovery in children after COVID-19
This study looks at how long “long COVID” affects children over time. It may help doctors better understand what symptoms last and what support could improve recovery.
TaipeiAges 6–18 - NCT05574153Recruiting
Testing heart oxygen reserve in metabolic syndrome and healthy adults
This study measures how much oxygen your heart can use during stress and at rest using an MRI scan. It compares people with metabolic syndrome (a cluster of health risks) to people without those risks, to understand differences in heart function.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–80 - NCT05574647Recruiting
Fast prostate MRI and guided biopsy testing for prostate cancer
This study checks whether a faster prostate MRI and image-matching (image-fusion) can better find suspicious spots so doctors can target a biopsy. If you have concerning prostate exam results or PSA blood test results, you may get an MRI and, if something looks suspicious, a biopsy using MRI images.
Southend-on-Sea, EssexAges 18 years+ - NCT05595577Recruiting
Personalized exercise program to improve fitness during cancer care
This trial tests whether a tailored, home-based exercise plan can improve exercise capacity (how far and how safely you can be active) in people receiving cancer treatments that may affect the heart. It may help you build safer stamina while monitoring your heart health.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–85 - NCT05598034Recruiting
Brain stimulation with tDCS for moderate depression
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation called tDCS can improve depression symptoms. It also uses MRI scans, aiming to understand how brain changes may relate to symptom improvement.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 20–55 - NCT05600400Recruiting
Test two vs five MRI-guided treatments for prostate cancer
This trial is comparing two different MRI-guided radiation treatment plans to see which one better improves sexual quality of life in prostate cancer. It may help people decide between shorter or more treatment-session radiation approaches.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05603026Recruiting
MRI study for people getting a valve replacement
This study uses MRI (a type of scan) in people who are scheduled for a catheter-based aortic valve replacement through the groin. It aims to see how well MRI can work for these patients and potentially improve care planning around the procedure.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–105 - NCT05603078Recruiting
Breast cancer surgery with a tumor-bed boost and standard radiation
This study looks at whether adding extra targeted radiation to the tumor area before breast-conserving surgery, then using modern breast surgery techniques and whole-breast radiation afterward, improves outcomes for early-stage breast cancer. You may be offered a treatment plan designed to better treat the area where the tumor was removed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Up to 55 years - NCT05614310Recruiting
Brain scan study to spot early Alzheimer’s
This study uses MRI brain scans and memory tests to help detect early Alzheimer’s disease. It compares people with Alzheimer’s (diagnosed by a clinician) with people without memory problems to see which scan and test results stand out.
