MRI study measuring brain and muscle chemical levels
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses MRI techniques to measure natural chemical “metabolites” in the brain and muscle. You may be able to join if you’re generally healthy and can safely complete a long MRI scan.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You can read and sign consent forms
- You are generally healthy based on your medical history and physical exam
- You must be enrolled in Protocol 01-M-0254 or Protocol 17-M-0181
- You do not have a current mental health condition such as an Axis 1 diagnosis

This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
This study uses MRI to measure certain chemicals in the brain (glutamate and GABA) and see how they are metabolized. You may be able to join if you are healthy, can safely have an MRI, and meet the specific enrollment requirements.
This study uses MRI scans to check and improve how medical teams measure brain changes. If you’re eligible, you’ll complete MRI safety screening and imaging while the team studies which scan measurements work best.
This study uses advanced MRI brain scans to better show how the brain responds to medicines (drug-related effects). You may also do extra safety screening and non-invasive brain stimulation for some parts of the research.
This study tests how a non-invasive magnetic stimulation technique affects the brain in healthy volunteers. It involves MRI scans and aims to understand brain function without surgery.
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure chemicals related to energy (creatine and phosphocreatine) in the muscle and brain. It may help researchers build a detailed “map” of these substances, which could support future research on energy and movement-related conditions.
