Zwolle, OverijsselAges 18 years+ - NCT07261436Recruiting
Testing AI's ability to read TAP block ultrasounds
This trial tests how well artificial intelligence (AI) can interpret ultrasound videos of a nerve block called a TAP block. If you are having planned surgery that includes this block, joining may help improve how blocks are performed in the future.

This study tests a pain-blocking injection during ear surgery to see if it helps reduce pain after the operation. It is for teenagers having ear reconstruction with rib cartilage at a specific hospital.
SeoulAges 13–18 - NCT07270276Recruiting
Dry needling for shoulder muscle pain
This study tests if dry needling (a therapy that uses thin needles to release muscle knots) can help with shoulder muscle pain. It uses special tests to measure how the treatment affects your muscles and pain.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT07270601Recruiting
Ultrasound test for liver fat
This study is testing a new ultrasound method to measure fat in the liver. It is for people who may have a liver condition or have risk factors like diabetes or obesity, as well as healthy volunteers.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–75 - NCT07271017RecruitingPhase 1
Robot-assisted prostate biopsy using a new ultrasound probe
This trial tests a robot-assisted method for taking prostate biopsies using a new type of ultrasound probe. It may help men with certain high-risk features get a more precise diagnosis.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 40–75 - NCT07273617Recruiting
Breathing positions and blood flow in healthy volunteers
This study tests how different breathing positions affect blood flow in healthy people. It uses a special ultrasound score (VExUS) to measure any changes.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07283913Recruiting
Non-invasive ear nerve stimulation for healthy volunteers
This study tests whether a non-invasive device that stimulates a nerve in the ear can affect health. It is for healthy adults who are not taking medications (except birth control) and can avoid eating and exercise for 12 hours before two of the visits.
Nottingham, NottinghamshireAges 18 years+ - NCT07284719Recruiting
Focused Ultrasound for Parkinson's Tremor
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) to reduce severe tremor in Parkinson's disease. It uses sound waves to target the brain area causing the shaking, without surgery.
AarhusAges 50–80 - NCT07285187Recruiting
Vein congestion and confusion after heart surgery trial
This trial looks at how blood backing up in veins after heart surgery might relate to delirium (sudden confusion). It uses a special ultrasound to check vein blood flow and then watches for confusion afterward.
Yangzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07290595RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two medicines for faster nerve block in arm surgery
This study compares two medicines (dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone) added to a numbing drug (ropivacaine) for a nerve block in the collarbone area. The goal is to see which combination works faster and better for pain relief during upper limb surgery.
Sāhīwāl, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT07294859Recruiting
Ultrasound to predict kidney function after kidney removal
This trial uses special ultrasound techniques to predict how well your remaining kidney will work after surgery to remove part or all of one kidney. It may help doctors understand your recovery and tailor follow-up care.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07302997Recruiting
Watching injection pressure during arm nerve block
This study monitors the pressure used while giving a nerve block (numbing shot) in the armpit area for hand, wrist, or forearm surgery. The goal is to see if real-time pressure monitoring can help make the block safer and more comfortable.
BellinzonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07309874Recruiting
Dry needling for headache relief
This study tests if a specific type of dry needling (using a thin needle on tight neck muscles) can help reduce headaches. You may join if you've had headaches recently and have tender muscles at the base of your skull.
Lubbock, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT07310758RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Using ultrasound contrast to detect sentinel nodes in cancer
This trial tests whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound can help find sentinel lymph nodes (the first nodes cancer may spread to) in people with melanoma, breast, or head and neck cancer. It may reduce the need for a radioactive tracer injection.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07316179Recruiting
Predicting breathing tube placement in weight-loss surgery
This study compares two methods—a standard risk score (El Ganzouri index) and an ultrasound exam—to predict how easy it will be to place a breathing tube during weight-loss surgery. The goal is to find the best way to keep patients safe during anesthesia.
Antalya, AntalyaAges 18–65 - NCT07321925Recruiting
Using sound waves to measure liver fat
This study tests a new method that uses sound waves to measure fat in your liver. It could help doctors check liver health without a biopsy.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07324980Recruiting
Ultrasound for breathing trouble in the ER
This study tests if a quick ultrasound can help doctors figure out why you are having trouble breathing when you come to the emergency room. It may lead to faster and more accurate care.
NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07326774Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided pain block for back surgery recovery
This trial tests whether a special pain block (Quadro-Iliac Plane Block) given before back surgery can reduce pain after the operation. The goal is to help patients feel more comfortable and need fewer painkillers.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT07332117Recruiting
Studying body changes in IPF and PPF patients starting anti-fibrotic drugs
This study uses safe, painless scans (like muscle ultrasound and a body composition test) to track changes in muscle and fat in patients with IPF or PPF who are starting anti-fibrotic medication. The goal is to better understand how these treatments affect your body.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07334288Recruiting
Numbing injection for pain relief after lower back surgery
This study tests a numbing injection near the spine (retrolaminar block) to reduce pain after lower back surgery with hardware. It could help you use less pain medicine and recover more comfortably.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ultrasound?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,215 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.
