Comparing two ways to inject steroids for throat narrowing
This trial tests two methods of injecting triamcinolone (a steroid) into the narrowed part of the throat (subglottic stenosis) to see which works better: one guided by a camera during an endoscopy, the other guided by ultrasound. It may help people who have trouble breathing or a hoarse voice due to this condition.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07374952RecruitingPhase 4

Montreal, QuebecAges 18–70 - NCT06384885Recruiting
Ultrasound for swimming lung fluid in open water athletes
This study uses ultrasound to check for fluid buildup in the lungs (swimming-induced pulmonary edema) in athletes who swim in open water races. It helps doctors understand how common this condition is and how to spot it quickly.
Parker, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07712406Recruiting
Nerve block for lower back pain from nerve entrapment
This trial tests whether a nerve block can help people with chronic lower back or buttock pain caused by a trapped nerve near the hip bone. You may be eligible if you have had this pain for at least 3 months and it did not get better with other treatments.
Gaziosmanpaşa, IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT07696533Recruiting
Comparing two imaging tests for chronic coronary syndrome
This trial sees if a carotid ultrasound is as good as a CT calcium score to detect heart disease in people with chest pain. It may help avoid more expensive or less available scans.
HarrowAges 18 years+ - NCT04609735Recruiting
Compare manual therapy, exercise, and ultrasound for golfer’s elbow
This study compares two treatment plans for golfer’s elbow—manual therapy plus exercise, and whether adding ultrasound helps more. It aims to reduce elbow and inner-forearm pain and improve how well you can use your arm.
Fort Wayne, IndianaAges 18–60 - NCT06483893Recruiting
Numbing blocks for awake breathing tube placement in neck surgery
This trial compares two numbing techniques for placing a breathing tube while you're awake. It aims to find which method works better for people with limited neck movement who need neck surgery.
Banī Suwayf, Beni Suweif GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT07518927Enrolling by invitation
Brain Mapping Study Using Ultrasound and Implanted Electrodes
This research study uses focused ultrasound waves combined with brain electrodes (already implanted for your epilepsy or psychiatric treatment) to map how your brain responds. The goal is to better understand brain function and potentially improve future treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 21–75 - NCT06639828RecruitingPhase 4
Safety study of Sonazoid for liver ultrasound in children
This trial tests a contrast agent called Sonazoid, which is used during an ultrasound to get clearer pictures of the liver. It is for children and teens who have one or more spots in the liver that need to be checked. The goal is to see if Sonazoid is safe and works well for children.
MünchenAges Up to 18 years - NCT05825183Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided vacuum procedure study after early pregnancy loss
This trial studies a medicine-product made from conception tissue (from an ultrasound-guided manual vacuum aspiration procedure) for people with an early miscarriage or termination. It may help researchers understand whether this approach is safe and potentially beneficial for recovery, but eligibility depends on specific medical and procedural factors.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07400237Recruiting
New imaging for tough gallbladder removal
This study compares two advanced imaging methods—laparoscopic ultrasound and fluorescence cholangiography—to help surgeons see bile ducts more clearly during a difficult gallbladder removal. It aims to make the surgery safer for patients like you.
Sant Joan Despí, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07397234Recruiting
Awake breathing tube placement study
This study tests two ways to numb the neck for placing a breathing tube while you're awake. It might help if you have a difficult airway that makes regular intubation harder.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–85 - NCT07381790Recruiting
Modern tools for lung infections in children
This study tests modern technology for diagnosing and treating lower respiratory infections in children. It may help kids with symptoms like fast breathing, wheezing, or chest retractions.
Ålesund, Møre og RomsdalAges birth–2 years - NCT07446023Recruiting
Testing a new way to measure heart artery blockages
This study compares two advanced imaging methods (IVUS and FFR) to see which better identifies blockages that need treatment. It may help doctors decide the best care for people with chest pain or recent heart attacks.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07360028Recruiting
Nerve blocks for pain after chest surgery
This trial tests two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) to control pain after chest surgery done with a camera. It aims to find which block works better so you can recover more comfortably.
Cairo, Abbassia-EgyptAges 25–70 - NCT07312890Recruiting
Ultrasound to check stomach fullness in ICU patients
This trial tests whether a bedside ultrasound can measure how full the stomach is in patients on a breathing machine who are receiving liquid nutrition through a tube. If it works, doctors may avoid complications and feed patients more safely.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07166627Recruiting

SohagAges 18–45 - NCT07278271Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. vaginal exam for labor decisions
This study compares two ways to check if you're in active labor: a vaginal exam or an ultrasound scan placed on your pelvic floor. The goal is to see which method helps doctors make better decisions about admitting you for delivery.

Ultrasound vs speech therapist for NG tube removal decision
This study is testing whether a simple ultrasound of the neck (called submental ultrasound) can help doctors decide when it's safe to remove a nasogastric (NG) tube, compared to a speech therapist's evaluation. If you have an NG tube that was placed due to a recent illness and are now recovering, this trial may help find a more reliable way to know when you can safely eat by mouth again.

Cassava wax baths for trigger finger pain and function
This study tests whether warm baths made from cassava (tapioca) wax can reduce pain, improve hand function, and help with the catching or locking feeling in people with trigger finger. If you have trigger finger and no other major hand problems, this treatment may offer a gentle, non-surgical option.
