MRI test for abdominal aortic aneurysms using a pressure-sound scan
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special MRI scan called magnetic resonance elastography to study abdominal aortic aneurysms. It may help doctors better measure and understand how the aneurysm tissue behaves.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be able to lie flat on your back inside the scanner for up to 60 minutes
- Be able to hold your breath for up to 15 seconds during the scan
- Not be claustrophobic (feeling too anxious in enclosed spaces)
- Not be pregnant during the study
- Have no metal or implanted devices that are not approved for MRI

This study uses special imaging to better measure how the aorta wall behaves in people with an enlarged aorta (an aneurysm) and in some people without an aneurysm. Results may help doctors understand aneurysm risk and plan care more precisely.
This trial is looking at how your heartbeat and breathing affect blood flow in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). It uses a special type of stent graft called Treo. The goal is to learn more so doctors can better treat AAAs.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for signs of inflammation in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors understand which aneurysms are at risk of growing or rupturing.
This research uses a special imaging scan (PET/CT) to take detailed pictures of inflammation in the aorta (the main blood vessel from your heart). Researchers want to understand why some people develop bulges in their aorta called aneurysms. If you have an aneurysm or are a healthy volunteer, this study may help improve how doctors detect and treat this condition.
This study looks at blood and/or scan markers to better understand abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). It may help doctors predict risks and guide follow-up or treatment choices.
This study collects information from people who have an abdominal aortic aneurysm and have had a special CT scan called CT angiography. Researchers want to learn more about this condition to help improve future care.
