MRI imaging advances for kidney health
Part of Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses advanced MRI scans to better understand kidney disease and improve imaging techniques. It may help doctors diagnose and monitor kidney problems more effectively.

This study is looking at how chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects the eyes, brain, and kidneys. It uses MRI scans to examine these organs, and aims to find connections that could help improve care for people with CKD.
This study uses MRI scans to look at how Fabry disease affects the kidneys, including scarring, swelling, and oxygen levels. It may help researchers understand kidney problems better and find new ways to monitor the disease.
This study uses MRI scans to look at kidneys after transplant, which may help check kidney health without invasive procedures. It might be helpful for people whose kidney function suddenly drops or who have had treatment to recover kidney function.
This study uses a special MRI scan to look at the kidneys in people with different kinds of kidney disease, including acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, vasculitis, and after a kidney transplant. The goal is to better understand these conditions.
This study uses advanced MRI scans to look at the kidneys in people with chronic kidney disease. It may help doctors better understand how the disease affects kidney function.
