Focused ultrasound for smell testing in healthy adults
This trial uses a special ultrasound device to safely target the brain area that controls smell. It aims to see if this method can temporarily change how healthy adults smell, which could one day help treat smell disorders.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18–65 - NCT07661433Recruiting
Testing an AI tool to estimate baby weight before birth
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can more accurately estimate a baby's weight using ultrasound, compared to standard methods. If you're about to give birth, this study may help improve how doctors predict your baby's size.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07650305Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods After Breast Cancer Surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques (numbing methods) to reduce pain after breast cancer surgery. Both approaches aim to keep you comfortable during and after your operation.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT07638306Recruiting
Neck Vein Ultrasound and Kidney Function After Abdominal Surgery
This study uses ultrasound to look at a vein in your neck before and after major abdominal surgery to understand how surgery affects your kidneys. Researchers hope this simple imaging technique might help predict and prevent kidney problems after surgery.
Târgu Mureş, Mureș CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07643090Recruiting
AI ultrasound test for placenta attachment complications
This study tests a new artificial-intelligence tool that analyzes ultrasound images to detect placenta accreta spectrum—a condition where the placenta attaches too deeply to the uterus. If you're pregnant with risk factors like placenta previa (placenta covering the cervix), this trial may help doctors catch the problem earlier.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–45 - NCT07636902Recruiting
Ultrasound to detect skull fractures in young children with head injuries
This study tests whether ultrasound (sound-wave imaging) can quickly and safely detect skull fractures in children 6 years old or younger who have bumped their head. The goal is to find a faster, non-radiation way to check for fractures in the emergency room.
Genova, ItalyAges Up to 6 years - NCT06405074Recruiting
Ultrasound for Smoking Cessation in Veterans
This study tests if a gentle ultrasound aimed at a specific part of the brain (the insula) can help veterans who smoke tobacco reduce or quit smoking. The research is for veterans who smoke heavily and are motivated to think about quitting but are not currently in treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–75 - NCT06453109Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for chronic back pain with opioid use
This study tests whether focused ultrasound (a non-invasive treatment using sound waves) can help people with chronic back pain who also have opioid use disorder and anxiety. It aims to find a better way to manage pain without relying on opioids.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–75 - NCT06697470Recruiting
Ultrasound and fluid monitoring in the ICU
This study uses ultrasound and electrical impedance (skin electrodes) to track fluid balance in the muscles and tissues of ICU patients. It aims to see if these tools can help doctors better manage fluids during your stay.
Boussu, HainautAges 18 years+ - NCT07621549Recruiting
Ultrasound Brain Stimulation for Schizophrenia Treatment
This study tests whether focused ultrasound waves directed at the brain can help reduce schizophrenia symptoms. If it works, it could offer a new treatment option for people whose symptoms aren't fully controlled by medication alone.
New Taipei CityAges 18–65 - NCT07625020Recruiting
Nerve Hydrodissection for Diabetic Nerve Entrapment Pain
This trial tests a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided procedure that uses fluid injection to free trapped nerves in the lower legs of people with diabetes. The goal is to relieve pain, numbness, and weakness when standard medications haven't worked well enough.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07616440Recruiting
Ultrasound drug delivery with chemotherapy for HER2-positive breast cancer
This study tests a new technique that uses focused ultrasound to deliver cancer drugs directly to breast tumors, combined with standard chemotherapy. The goal is to improve treatment effectiveness for HER2-positive breast cancer before surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT07612761Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods for Hip Fracture Surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after hip fracture surgery. Both methods numb the area around your hip to reduce pain and may help you recover better.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07619417Enrolling by invitation
Electric pulse ablation for pancreatic growths
This trial uses a special endoscopic tool to deliver electric pulses to abnormal growths in the pancreas. It may help people who cannot have surgery for these growths.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07612644Recruiting
Ultrasound Guidance for Safer Spinal Taps in Babies
This study tests whether using ultrasound to guide lumbar punctures (spinal taps) in babies under 12 months reduces blood contamination in the fluid samples. The goal is to make the procedure safer and more accurate for diagnosing infections or other conditions.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 1 day–1 year - NCT07611747RecruitingPhase 4
Ultrasound Screening to Prevent Heart Disease in Rheumatic Patients
This study tests whether using ultrasound to look at arteries in the neck can help prevent heart attacks and strokes in people with inflammatory joint diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. Researchers will use the results to guide treatment decisions.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 50 years+ - NCT07604506Enrolling by invitation
Ultrasound nerve block training for junior emergency doctors
This study teaches junior doctors in emergency medicine how to use ultrasound to safely perform nerve blocks—a pain-relief technique. Researchers will compare learning with a low-cost practice model to see if it works as well as expensive alternatives.
Kubang Kerian, KelantanAges Any age - NCT07605533Recruiting
Ultrasound accuracy for detecting abdominal scar tissue before surgery
This study tests whether an ultrasound scan can accurately predict scar tissue inside the abdomen before a planned minimally invasive surgery. This could help doctors prepare better for surgery and reduce complications.
SohagAges Any age - NCT07599592RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Ultrasound Treatment for Essential Tremor
This early-stage study tests whether focused ultrasound waves can safely reduce hand tremors in people with essential tremor. The ultrasound is applied from outside the skin without surgery, and researchers want to see if it helps calm unwanted shaking.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT07598097Recruiting
AI prediction of early birth using cervical ultrasound images
