Study how depression and cannabis affect the brain in young adults with HIV
This study looks at brain activity to understand how depression and cannabis use may be linked in young adults living with HIV. It mainly involves questionnaires, mental health screening, and brain scans, which may help researchers better understand risk factors and brain “underpinnings.”
Miami, FloridaAges 18–59 - 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 - 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 - NCT03923374Recruiting
Study of buprenorphine for opioid use during pregnancy
This study looks at pregnancy and baby outcomes for people who are pregnant and taking buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. It may help doctors understand what to expect long-term for both parent and child when opioid treatment continues during pregnancy.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05368493Enrolling by invitation
Study how air pollution affects youth development
This study looks at whether exposure to air pollution during youth is linked to how children grow, learn, or develop. You may be invited if your family is already part of an earlier birth cohort study and can complete questionnaires and (if needed) brain imaging safely.
New York, New YorkAges 6 months–11 years - NCT05359653RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Clemastine to study MRI changes in relapsing MS
This early-phase study tests whether clemastine (a drug being studied for “myelin repair”) changes how MS looks on special MRI scans. It may help researchers understand if the treatment supports restoring nerve covering in people with relapsing-remitting MS.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–55 - NCT02170155Recruiting
MRI and spinal fluid flow study for neck cord injuries
This study uses MRI scans and looks at spinal fluid flow to better understand problems in the spinal cord after a neck (cervical) injury. It may help researchers learn what scan and fluid changes go along with these conditions.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–80 - NCT03549559Recruiting
Heart imaging study in healthy people and specific conditions
This study uses heart imaging to look at changes in the heart muscle. It includes healthy volunteers and people with diabetes or aortic stenosis, to understand differences seen on scans.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT05258396Recruiting
Remyelination study for teens with multiple sclerosis
This study tests whether the brain may “repair” itself (re-myelinate) in children and teens with multiple sclerosis. It uses brain MRI to look for changes and may help clinicians better understand how to treat MS in younger people.
Le Kremlin-BicêtreAges 12–18 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05218460Recruiting
Improving MRI comfort and image quality in healthy volunteers
This study tests ways to improve how MRI scans feel and how clear the images look. You may be invited if you are an adult and can safely have an MRI, with or without certain medical conditions.
NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT05197946Recruiting
Imaging study comparing brain changes in cerebral palsy and typical people
This study uses surveys and brain imaging (MRI) to look for patterns that match chronic pain in people with cerebral palsy, and compares them with people without cerebral palsy. It may help researchers better understand what brain features relate to chronic pain.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 8 years+ - NCT05164744Recruiting
MRI study of heart tissue changes after COVID-19
This study uses a heart MRI to look for leftover (healing) changes in heart tissue after COVID-19. It may help researchers better understand what ongoing heart effects can happen after infection.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05072483Recruiting
Study of CADASIL’s natural course using blood tests and MRI
This study follows people with CADASIL (a genetic brain blood-vessel condition) to learn how it progresses over time. It uses blood and possibly tissue samples and brain MRI scans to better understand changes in the brain.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05110248Recruiting
MRI scan study testing new ways to measure multiple organs
This study tests new MRI scan techniques that aim to capture information from multiple organs in one scan. It may help researchers improve how MRI images are taken and analyzed in fewer visits.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05123443Recruiting
Study tracks iron changes in MS brain spots over time
This study looks at how “iron rims” in brain MRI scans change over time in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). It may help researchers understand MS activity better and how iron changes relate to disease progression.
NottinghamAges 16 years+ - NCT05095714Recruiting
Fast MRI for close monitoring of high-risk liver cancer
This trial studies a faster MRI scan to help track early liver cancer in people who have cirrhosis and are considered high risk. It may improve how often and how well doctors can look for changes without using longer imaging sessions.
BondyAges 18 years+ - NCT05130801RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MRI and pHLIP dye during breast surgery to map tumors
This trial tests whether a special MRI and an injected light-activated dye (pHLIP® ICG) can help doctors see and target breast cancer during surgery. You may be offered this approach around the time of breast-conserving surgery, to improve how well the tumor area is identified.
Montvale, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05023772Recruiting
Laser and targeted radiation for spine metastases
This trial tests a combination treatment that uses a laser and focused radiation to shrink tumors in the spine and help stabilize the area near the spinal cord. It’s meant for adults with certain types of solid cancers that have limited spread in the spine and who are not good candidates for surgery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 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+ - NCT04451278Recruiting
Brain scan study to predict outcomes after epilepsy surgery in kids
This trial uses resting-state brain MRI (a scan while you’re not doing a task) to help predict how well children with hard-to-treat epilepsy may do after surgery. If you qualify, you would help researchers see whether the scan can forecast prognosis.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mri?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 909 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.
