MRI with special images to sort unclear ovarian masses
This study uses pelvic MRI with special techniques (including blood-flow and water-movement pictures) to better classify ovarian/adnexal masses that ultrasound cannot clearly explain. It may help doctors choose the safest next steps based on more detailed imaging.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges Any age - NCT02829190RecruitingPhase 3
MRI test to map blood flow in neck arteries
This study checks whether a special MRI scan can measure blood flow in certain neck artery branches. It compares results in different groups (healthy people and people with past neck radiation or procedures) to see how well the scan works.
Amiens, PicardieAges 18–70 - NCT07060261Recruiting
Pre-op MRI for HPV+ tonsil cancer surgery
This trial is looking at whether an MRI before surgery can help improve outcomes for people with HPV-positive tonsil cancer who are undergoing robotic surgery (TORS). The results may help doctors better plan surgery to remove all cancer.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07046910RecruitingPhase 2
MRI to detect lung rejection after transplant
This study uses a special MRI scan (called hyperpolarized gas MRI) to check for signs of lung rejection after a transplant. The goal is to see if the MRI can help detect rejection earlier and more safely than standard bronchoscopy alone.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–80 - NCT06992089Recruiting
Pacemaker study for heart failure with low heart rate
This trial tests a special pacemaker setting to help your heart beat faster during exercise. It may improve your ability to be active if you have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and a low resting heart rate.
ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT06626074Recruiting
MRI study for NASH diagnosis
This study looks at MRI scans to find better ways to diagnose NASH (a type of fatty liver disease with inflammation). If you are already scheduled for a liver biopsy for suspected NASH, an MRI might help researchers learn more about your condition.
Angers, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07679009Enrolling by invitation
Cardiac MRI for people with pacemakers or ICDs
This trial uses cardiac MRI to check the heart in people who have older or damaged pacemaker leads or who have permanent leads on the outside of the heart. The goal is to see if MRI can safely provide useful images without causing problems.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06478485Recruiting
A new way to plan neck surgery using MRI measurements
This trial is testing a new method to plan cervical spine surgery called laminoplasty. The goal is to use special measurements from MRI scans to better decide how to operate. This could lead to better recovery for people with spinal cord compression in the neck.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07472491RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Contrast MRI study for brain, spine, and body cancers
This trial tests a new contrast agent called mangaciclanol for MRI scans of the central nervous system (brain and spine) or body areas like the chest, belly, pelvis, and muscles. You may join if you have known or suspected tumors that need an MRI with contrast, and you're healthy enough to have two contrast MRIs within a short time.
