Recruiting studies
- NCT04343430Recruiting
Hospital study for fluid buildup in heart failure with preserved heart function
This study looks at how well doctors can assess fluid buildup before you leave the hospital if you have a type of heart failure called “preserved ejection fraction.” It may help improve decisions about when and how safely people are discharged.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04047784Enrolling by invitation
Using EBUS to help diagnose a blood clot in the lungs
This study looks at whether a procedure called EBUS (a camera passed through the airway) can help doctors diagnose an acute pulmonary embolism—a sudden blood clot in the lungs—in critically ill, intubated ICU patients. If you’re eligible, EBUS may be done during bronchoscopy as part of your usual care to help confirm or rule out the diagnosis.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04343443Recruiting
Test whether a lung ultrasound helps discharge planning after heart failure
This study looks at people hospitalized for worsening heart failure with weaker pumping (reduced ejection fraction). It tests whether a lung ultrasound evaluation near discharge can improve how doctors decide it is safe to send you home.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04255615Recruiting
AI tool to improve IVF and embryo freezing assessments
This study uses an artificial intelligence (computer) tool to look at results from IVF and related fertility treatments. It may help clinicians assess outcomes more accurately for people going through ovarian stimulation and embryo or egg freezing.
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT04629469Recruiting
Two types of MRI scans in children
This study compares two MRI scan settings (a lower and higher magnetic field) in children to see how well they work for pediatric patients. It may help doctors choose the best MRI approach for kids without changing any care beyond the scan itself.
Kansas City, MissouriAges birth–22 years - NCT04257747Recruiting
3T MRI study of hand and forearm blood flow
This study uses a powerful MRI scanner (3 Tesla) to measure blood flow in the arteries of the hand and forearm under normal and certain medical conditions. You may qualify if you’re an adult and can safely have an MRI, either as a healthy volunteer or someone needing specific hand/arm surgery.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06841822Recruiting
Nerve blocks for lung surgery: a study on heart function
This trial tests if a special ultrasound-guided nerve block can help keep your heart and blood pressure stable during the start of lung surgery. It may lead to a safer and more comfortable experience.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07656181Recruiting
Standardizing quality criteria for liver ultrasound with contrast
This trial gathers expert doctors to create standard quality rules for liver ultrasound exams that use contrast dye. If you're a very experienced ultrasound doctor, your opinion could help shape future care.
Bern, Canton of BernAges Any age - NCT06217783Recruiting
Comparing IV catheter lengths for hard-to-find veins in cancer patients
This trial compares two different lengths of IV catheters placed with ultrasound help for cancer patients in the emergency room who have hard-to-find veins. The goal is to see which catheter length works best and lasts longer during a hospital stay.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06487013Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for painful bone metastases
This trial tests a focused ultrasound treatment called ArcBlate to relieve pain from bone cancer that has spread. It is for people who have moderate to severe pain despite cancer therapy and have chosen not to have surgery or radiation for that pain.
New Taipei CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06478459RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-NK cell injection for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment where CAR-NK cells are injected directly into the pancreatic tumor using an endoscope. It is designed for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has come back or cannot be removed by surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07426965Recruiting
Ultrasound findings and pain in stroke patients with shoulder pain
This study uses ultrasound to look at the shoulder on the side affected by stroke and see how it relates to pain. It may help understand why shoulder pain happens after a stroke.
AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT05885230Recruiting
Pain relief after heart surgery: nerve block vs lidocaine drip
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after open-heart surgery: an ultrasound-guided nerve block (PIFB) versus lidocaine given through a vein. The goal is to see which method works better and helps you recover more comfortably.
Banī Suwayf, e\EYGPTAges 18–75 - NCT06861075Recruiting
Carvedilol for high blood pressure in liver veins
This trial tests whether a medicine called carvedilol can lower high blood pressure in the liver veins of people with cirrhosis. It uses a special ultrasound probe to measure the pressure before and after taking the medicine.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT06274645Recruiting
Study of IVUS for Complex Heart Procedures
This study will look at how using a special ultrasound (IVUS) during a heart procedure (PCI) can help people with complex blockages, such as heavy calcium or multiple narrowings. It aims to see if this approach improves outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07497295Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict blood pressure drop during prostate surgery
This study uses ultrasound to measure how much the veins in your leg and belly collapse when you breathe, to see if this can predict a drop in blood pressure during spinal anesthesia for prostate surgery. If you are eligible, you may help doctors better manage your blood pressure during surgery.
Antalya, MuratpasaAges 18–75 - NCT03231150Recruiting
Study for heel pain from plantar fasciitis
This trial studies treatments for ongoing heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis (pain in the band on the bottom of your foot). If you qualify, you may receive an injection treatment and be compared with a control group to see what works best.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07613333Recruiting
Exercise Program for New Mothers
This study tests an exercise program designed for women who have given birth within the past 2 years. Researchers want to learn how exercise affects energy levels and overall health after pregnancy.
Waukesha, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07610824Recruiting
Lung Pressure and Recovery After Robot-Assisted Prostate Surgery
This study measures breathing pressure during robot-assisted prostate removal surgery and checks lung function after surgery using ultrasound. It aims to understand how surgery affects your lungs and recovery.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–80 - NCT07599865RecruitingPhase 2
Bubble study for knee infection after joint replacement
This trial tests if a contrast agent used in ultrasound can help surgeons see pockets of infection around knee implants during revision surgery. It may help doctors do a better job cleaning out the infection.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06683157Recruiting
Study of calf vein clots with ultrasound monitoring
This study follows people with a blood clot in the calf vein to learn how the clot changes over time using repeat ultrasound scans. It may help doctors understand who needs treatment and who can be watched safely.
Dresden, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT06128018Recruiting
Endoscopic vs surgical bypass for stomach blockage
This study compares two ways to help with gastric outlet obstruction (a blockage in the stomach or small intestine) caused by a tumor. It tests if a procedure using an endoscope (a long, flexible tube with a camera) is as good as surgery to help you eat and drink more comfortably.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07066449Recruiting

Check how lung ultrasound helps manage heart failure congestion
This study looks at people with long-term worsening heart failure who are coming to the hospital for a planned visit, to see how checking “congestion” (fluid buildup) may guide care. It may help the team understand whether lung ultrasound can better assess who needs treatment changes.
