Abilene, TexasAges 30–75 - NCT06646250Recruiting
New ultrasound for steady brain monitoring in newborns
This trial uses a new ultrasound device (NeoDoppler) to watch blood flow in a baby's brain continuously. It aims to see if this gentle, bedside tool can help doctors monitor babies—especially those born early or with certain health concerns—without moving them.
TrondheimAges birth–1 year - NCT06647225Recruiting
AI screening for hip dysplasia in babies
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence tool can help doctors more accurately diagnose hip dysplasia in babies using ultrasound images. It might help your baby get a faster and more precise diagnosis if they are already being checked for a hip problem.

Blood flow changes after epidural pain relief in labor
This study looks at how a type of labor pain relief (combined spinal-epidural) affects blood flow in the mother and baby's main arteries. It may help doctors understand if this common pain relief method is safe for all labors.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–50 - NCT06656299Recruiting
Nerve block for gallbladder removal surgery
This study tests a nerve block called EOIB to see if it helps reduce pain after gallbladder removal surgery. If you are having planned gallbladder surgery, this might be a good option for you.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT06658782Recruiting
MRI vs ultrasound for liver cancer detection in high-risk people
This trial compares two types of scans to see which detects liver cancer better in people at high risk. You would receive either an MRI with contrast or an ultrasound every 6 months to monitor for liver cancer.
Oxford, OxonAges 18 years+ - NCT06658886Recruiting
Corticosteroid injection vs. paraffin therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection or paraffin wax therapy. It aims to find which option works better for people with mild to moderate symptoms lasting at least 3 months.
Istanbul, BeylikdüzüAges 18–65 - NCT06664359Recruiting
Safer trigger point injections using ultrasound guidance
This study is testing a safer way to give trigger point injections — shots that relieve painful muscle knots — in the upper back. Researchers will use ultrasound to guide the needle and measure how close it is to the lungs, to avoid complications.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06666049Recruiting
Ultrasound test on the stomach before surgery in patients taking GLP-1 drugs
This trial uses a stomach ultrasound (called gastric POCUS) to check if your stomach is empty before surgery. It is for patients taking GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic, Wegovy, or similar) to help make sure it is safe to proceed with anesthesia.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–90 - NCT06667921Recruiting
Ultrasound airway test for children having planned surgery
This study uses ultrasound to see the airway in children before surgery. It aims to predict if the child's airway will be easy or difficult to intubate (placing a breathing tube).
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 2–5 - NCT06669000Recruiting
How long to dissolve gout crystals
This study looks at how long it takes for urate crystals (the cause of gout) to dissolve in the body. It may help if you have gout, are not on uric acid-lowering medicine, and have higher uric acid levels.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06670833Recruiting
Tools to improve childhood pneumonia care
This trial tests new tools to help doctors diagnose and manage pneumonia in children. It may help children with cough or trouble breathing who are not severely ill.
DakarAges 2 months–12 years - NCT06678438RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block vs. hematoma block for wrist fracture realignment
This study compares two ways to numb your arm before a doctor moves your broken wrist back into place: one is a nerve block (injection near the shoulder), and the other is a hematoma block (injection into the fracture site). The goal is to see which method works better for pain relief during the procedure.
Hillerød, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT06689605Recruiting
Tru-cut biopsy for suspected ovarian cancer
This trial checks if an ultrasound-guided tru-cut biopsy (a small needle sample) is safe and accurate in people with suspected advanced ovarian cancer. It may help avoid more invasive surgery to get a diagnosis.
Hradec KrálovéAges 18 years+ - NCT06692335Recruiting
Comparing HIFU and surgery for uterine fibroids
This trial compares two treatments for painful or heavy menstrual bleeding caused by uterine fibroids: high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) and myomectomy (surgery to remove fibroids). It may help you decide which option fits your needs.
Hong KongAges 18–50 - NCT06706856Recruiting
Ultrasound test for fatty liver disease in kids
This study explores if a new ultrasound technique can detect fatty liver disease in children. It aims to find a simpler, safer way to check liver health without needing an MRI or biopsy.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 9–18 - NCT07684976Recruiting
Safety of a helmet device using ultrasound for substance use disorder

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,225 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.
