Focused Ultrasound for Dystonia of Arms or Legs
This study tests whether focused ultrasound, a noninvasive treatment that uses sound waves to target a small area in the brain, can improve limb dystonia that has not been helped by medications or Botox injections. It is a possible option for people whose dystonia affects their arms or legs and who are looking for another treatment without surgery.

Testing a new numbing shot for lung nodule localization
This study tests a new type of numbing injection (called a retro-superior costotransverse ligament space block) to see how well it spreads and numbs the area during CT-guided lung nodule localization. The goal is to find better ways to keep you comfortable during the procedure.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06960876Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. sinus massage for chronic sinusitis
This study compares two treatments for chronic sinusitis: ultrasound therapy (sound waves applied to the face) and sinus massage (gentle pressure on the face). Both are non-drug options that may help relieve your symptoms.

Dexamethasone or magnesium for pain relief after C-section
This trial tests adding dexamethasone or magnesium sulfate to the numbing medicine given as a back injection (erector spinae plane block) to see if it provides better pain relief after a planned C-section. The goal is to reduce pain and the need for extra painkillers after surgery.
CairoAges 18–35 - NCT07128043Enrolling by invitation
Cassava wax baths for trigger finger pain and function
This study tests whether warm baths made from cassava (tapioca) wax can reduce pain, improve hand function, and help with the catching or locking feeling in people with trigger finger. If you have trigger finger and no other major hand problems, this treatment may offer a gentle, non-surgical option.
Chiang Rai, Tha SutAges 40–70 - NCT07106112Recruiting
Carbon vs. Metal marker for breast cancer lymph node marking after chemo
This trial compares two methods to mark lymph nodes in the armpit after chemotherapy for breast cancer. It tests whether a carbon-based marker works as well as a metallic marker to help surgeons find and remove the right lymph nodes.
Saint PetersburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07113808Recruiting
Ultrasound with contrast for children's belly problems
This study tests if a special ultrasound dye is safe and useful in children to look at tumors, injury, or fluid in the belly when other tests haven't given clear answers.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 4 weeks–18 years - NCT07111364Recruiting
Ultrasound with AI to diagnose bladder tumors
This study uses ultrasound with AI to better diagnose bladder masses. It's for people who have a suspicious finding on a bladder ultrasound and are already planning to have surgery to treat it.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT06968065Recruiting
Pain control after minimally invasive heart surgery: nerve block vs wound injection
This study compares two ways to manage pain after minimally invasive heart surgery: a nerve block injection near the ribs or injecting numbing medicine into the wound. The goal is to find which method works better for reducing pain and your need for painkillers.
IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT06968364Recruiting
Testing a device to predict preterm birth risk
This trial tests a new medical device to see if it can help predict preterm birth in pregnant women who are having early contractions. It may help doctors decide which patients need treatment to prevent early delivery.
A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT07098767Recruiting
Swallowing Ultrasound Study for People with Swallowing Difficulty
This trial tests whether an ultrasound can reliably evaluate swallowing problems. It aims to find a non-invasive way to assess your swallowing, which could help guide your care.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07099950Recruiting
How brain ultrasound affects mood and anxiety
This study uses low-intensity focused ultrasound on the brain to see if it can help with mood and anxiety. It looks at different doses to find the most effective and safe level.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18–65 - NCT05352958Recruiting
Ultrasound checks breathing muscle function in ALS
This study uses a quick ultrasound test to check how well the breathing muscle (the diaphragm) works in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). It may help doctors monitor breathing changes over time and guide care.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07090512Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict kidney risk after transplant
This study uses ultrasound of donor kidneys to predict the risk of kidney problems after transplant. It may help doctors better understand transplant outcomes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07087249Recruiting
Ultrasound visual feedback for childhood apraxia of speech
This trial tests a new speech therapy method that uses ultrasound to show children a live picture of their tongue movements on a screen. It aims to help children with childhood apraxia of speech improve their speech by giving them visual feedback as they practice sounds.
Florianópolis, Santa CatarinaAges 5–16 - NCT07076472RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Sound and drug therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new approach that combines a drug (SONALA-001 or 5-ALA) with focused ultrasound to treat glioblastoma that has come back or is growing despite standard treatments. The drug makes tumor cells sensitive to sound waves, and the ultrasound waves are directed at the tumor using MRI guidance. This may help damage cancer cells while sparing healthy brain tissue.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07075705Recruiting
Testing a new ultrasound method for prostate biopsy
This trial compares a new micro-ultrasound technique to standard ultrasound during prostate biopsy, using MRI results as a guide. It aims to see if the newer method finds cancer more accurately.

- Are there clinical trials for ultrasound?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,175 recruiting ultrasound 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 ultrasound 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 ultrasound 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.
