Comparing two pain relief methods after Whipple surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after Whipple surgery: a long-lasting numbing injection near the belly muscles (rectus sheath block) versus an epidural (a tube placed in your back). The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and recovery.

Ultrasound-guided needle thread release for carpal tunnel
This trial tests a new, less invasive way to release the tight ligament in the wrist that causes carpal tunnel syndrome. It uses ultrasound to guide a curved needle and thread to cut the ligament, which may lead to less pain and faster recovery.

Breathing changes during blood transfusions in newborns
This study watches how breathing changes in newborns during blood transfusions. It helps doctors understand if transfusions affect breathing, so they can give safer care.
RomaAges Up to 1 month - NCT06452147Recruiting
Anesthesia and brain health after hip surgery in older adults
This trial is testing different types of anesthesia to see how they affect brain function (memory, thinking) after hip fracture surgery in older adults. It aims to find the safest approach for elderly patients.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 65 years+ - NCT06464419Recruiting
Effect of surgery position on eye nerve sheath size
This study is for people having kidney stone surgery. It looks at how the position you are in during surgery affects the nerve sheath around your eye, which may help doctors monitor pressure in the brain.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06473766Recruiting
Ultrasound data to tell benign from malignant ovarian masses
This study uses ultrasound data to help tell the difference between benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) solid ovarian masses. It may help improve diagnosis and treatment decisions for people with this condition.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06479577Recruiting
Comparing ultrasound and laser therapy for diabetic foot pain
This study compares two physical therapy methods (ultrasound and high-intensity laser therapy) to see which one better reduces nerve pain, improves strength, and boosts quality of life in people with diabetic foot pain.
Bahawalpur, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–75 - NCT07612046Recruiting
MRI of the pancreas for cancer screening
This study uses MRI scans to screen for pancreas cancer in people at high risk due to family history or certain gene mutations. It aims to see if MRI can help find cancer early.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07691918Enrolling by invitation
Brain stimulation for mild memory loss
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help people with mild memory problems. It uses a special cap to gently stimulate the brain and aims to improve thinking and memory.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 55–80 - NCT06488183Recruiting
Pain relief study for laparoscopic weight loss surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic bariatric surgery: one method involves numbing medicine placed near the surgery site, and the other uses an ultrasound-guided injection near the back. It aims to find which option works better for recovery in people with moderate to severe obesity.
AlexandriaAges 20–50 - NCT06489158Recruiting
Breath test for women with suspicious breast ultrasound findings
This study collects breath samples from women with suspicious breast ultrasound findings (BI-RADS 4) before surgery to see if certain chemicals in the breath can help identify cancer. If you are scheduled for surgery soon, your breath may help researchers find a new way to screen for breast cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06491212Recruiting
Flat feet linked to breathing and balance study
This study looks at whether people with flat feet have differences in their diaphragm (a breathing muscle), balance, and foot pressure compared to people with normal arches. It may help understand how flat feet affect overall movement and stability.
Antalya, AlanyaAges 18–30 - NCT06492720Recruiting
Testing focused ultrasound for drug-resistant epilepsy
This study tests a new device called NaviFUS that uses focused sound waves to gently stimulate a small area of the brain. It is for people whose seizures start in one part of the brain and are not fully controlled by seizure medicines.
TaipeiAges 18–65 - NCT06496256Recruiting
Barrigel gel for radiation after prostate removal
This trial tests a gel placed in the rectum during radiation therapy to protect healthy tissue after prostate removal. It is for men whose prostate cancer has come back (PSA rise) and who need radiation to the prostate bed.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06497959RecruitingPhase 3
Ultrasound study of placenta blood flow
This trial uses a special contrast dye during ultrasound to examine blood flow in the placenta of pregnant women who have chosen to end their pregnancy for medical reasons. It may help understand the role of poor placental blood flow in severe fetal growth restriction.

Pain relief study: adding dexamethasone or magnesium to a nerve block for kidney removal
This study compares two different medications (dexamethasone and magnesium) added to a standard painkiller used in a nerve block for patients having one kidney removed. The goal is to find out which combination provides better pain relief after surgery.

Blood flow restriction with low-intensity exercises for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests if using a special cuff to slightly reduce blood flow while doing gentle exercises can help reduce knee pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis. It may offer a way to get stronger without heavy weights.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–65 - NCT06505304Recruiting
AI endoscopy to predict Crohn's return after surgery
This trial uses artificial intelligence during colonoscopy to predict if Crohn's disease will come back after surgery. It aims to improve early detection and guide treatment decisions.
LeuvenAges 18–75 - NCT06505512Recruiting
Belly infection and kidney health ultrasound study
This study uses ultrasound to look at your belly organs and kidney blood flow in people with serious belly infections and sepsis. It may help doctors understand how infection affects the kidneys.

EUS-guided tool to check how well beta-blockers work for cirrhosis
This study tests a new way to measure if a type of blood pressure medicine called non-selective beta-blockers (NSBBs) is helping patients with cirrhosis. It uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope) to measure pressures in the liver and a nearby vein. If you have cirrhosis with high pressure in the portal vein but haven't started NSBBs yet, this study may help your doctor decide if the medicine is working for you.

- Are there clinical trials for ultrasound?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,218 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.
