Recruiting studies
- NCT06880016Recruiting
Lung ultrasound after surfactant in preterm babies
This study uses lung ultrasound to see how different ways of giving surfactant (a medicine for breathing problems) affect preterm babies born before 32 weeks. It may help doctors choose the best method for your baby.
Konya, KaratayAges 1 day–5 days - NCT06844331Enrolling by invitation

Ioannina, EpirusAges 18–99 - NCT06610877Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for essential tremor
This trial tests if a focused ultrasound treatment can help people with essential tremor that hasn't improved with medication. It is designed for those already scheduled for a similar procedure using MRI guidance.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06415916Recruiting
Ultrasound to check fluid needs in the ICU
This study uses ultrasound to see if patients in the intensive care unit need additional fluids. It aims to help doctors decide when to give fluids more accurately.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06391086Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for arm recovery after recent stroke
This study tests if focused ultrasound (a noninvasive sound wave therapy) can help improve arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. It is for people whose stroke occurred within the last three months and who still have some arm weakness.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04876157Recruiting
AI helps read heart and kidney ultrasound images
This trial tests an artificial-intelligence (computer) tool that helps interpret ultrasound pictures taken at the bedside. It may help clinicians understand heart or kidney ultrasound scans more quickly and consistently.
Taipei, None SelectedAges 20 years+ - NCT06297200Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for complex back pain patients
This study tests a new, non-invasive ultrasound treatment for people with long-term back pain who also have opioid use disorder and anxiety. It aims to see if this gentle brain stimulation can reduce pain and improve quality of life.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 18–65 - NCT06264167Recruiting
Ultrasound for groin lymph nodes in vulvar cancer
This trial tests whether using ultrasound of the groin can help find cancer spread in the lymph nodes of women with early-stage vulvar cancer. The goal is to see if ultrasound can replace or reduce the need for more invasive surgery.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06273904Recruiting
Focused ultrasound to help manage anxiety
This trial tests whether focused ultrasound can help people with anxiety disorders better manage their symptoms. It involves brain stimulation and recording sessions to see how the treatment works.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–65 - NCT06243848Recruiting
Injection vs. surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided injection and a surgery to take pressure off the median nerve. It aims to see which one provides better relief for symptoms like numbness and tingling.
AfyonkarahisarAges 18–75 - NCT06049784Recruiting
Visual biofeedback before labor using a self-operated ultrasound device
This trial tests whether using a self-operated ultrasound device to provide visual biofeedback before labor can help with the birthing process. It is for low-risk pregnancies planning a vaginal delivery.
Petah TikvaAges 18 years+ - NCT06018831Recruiting
Kidney screening for newborns
This study offers free urine and ultrasound screening for kidney disease in all newborn infants, with a goal to find and track potential issues early over the first 3 years of life.
Nantong, JiangsuAges Up to 6 years - NCT05961982Recruiting
EUS-guided heat treatment for pancreatic cysts
This study tests whether an endoscopy-based “radiofrequency ablation” (controlled heating) can manage certain pancreatic cysts that look high-risk. It’s designed for people who are not good candidates for surgery, aiming to shrink or control the cyst safely.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05966311Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided feeding tube placement for children
This study tests a new way to place a feeding tube directly into the stomach using ultrasound instead of an endoscope. It may be a safer and less invasive option for children who need help getting nutrition.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges birth–21 years - NCT05834829Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound scan to study the body’s automatic (stress) responses
This trial tests a low-intensity ultrasound approach while measuring how your nervous system and body respond automatically (like changes in heart rate or stress signals). It may help researchers learn how to stimulate or monitor these responses safely, using imaging and standard monitoring.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 18–65 - NCT05685108Recruiting
Ultrasound to reduce inflammation in healthy adults
This study tests how ultrasound can safely calm down inflammation signals in the body. It may help researchers find better ways to control inflammation without using standard anti-inflammatory medicines.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 25–50 - NCT05648812RecruitingPhase 3
Ultrasound tests for baby brains using special imaging
This Phase 3 study tests whether detailed ultrasound scans (with contrast and stiffness measurements) can help doctors assess a baby’s brain. It may help by improving how early brain changes are detected in newborn care settings.
Turku, Southwestern FinlandAges 1 minute–6 months - NCT05219695RecruitingPhase 1
Ultrasound imaging and treatment for breast tumors
This study uses focused ultrasound waves to create detailed images of breast tumors and deliver targeted treatment. It aims to improve how breast tumors are treated while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT02948361Enrolling by invitation
Testing a breast scan device on healthy volunteers
This study tests how well a new breast scanning device works in people who volunteer. You may be eligible if you can safely tolerate the scan and fit your breast into the device.
Novato, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06292494Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for drug-resistant epilepsy
This trial tests a treatment called focused ultrasound, which uses sound waves to target and help control seizures in people whose epilepsy has not improved with at least two medications. It may offer a new option for those with localized epilepsy.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04186325Recruiting
Diaphragm training using ultrasound for ventilator patients
This study tests a way to train the diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) using ultrasound guidance to help people on breathing machines get stronger. It may help patients who are on a ventilator recover their breathing ability more effectively.
Al MansurahAges 21–65 - NCT05492344Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided breathing support for severe lung failure
This study tests whether using an ultrasound scan to guide a breathing machine settings can improve care for people with moderate or severe ARDS, a serious lung condition. If you qualify, the team will compare the ultrasound-guided approach to standard ventilator care in the ICU.
BrusselsAges 18–100 - NCT03195556Recruiting
Test ultrasound contrast to improve blood flow in legs
This study checks whether using a special ultrasound with contrast can improve blood flow in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). If you have leg circulation problems, it may help doctors measure and potentially enhance how well blood reaches your limb.

Common questions
- 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.
