MRI study of salt buildup in people with kidney problems
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans to measure how much salt (sodium) builds up in soft tissues in people with kidney disease and related heart conditions. It may help researchers understand what’s happening in the body and how treatment or changes in care affect salt buildup.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be age 6 or older
- You have kidney disease (including people on dialysis or not yet on dialysis) or be a healthy control
- If you are on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, you’ve been on it for more than 3 months
- If you are in this study at a later visit, your dialysis/therapy/medicines or related care must have changed recently
- You cannot be pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to become pregnant
- You must be able to consent and understand the study information and be able to do the MRI

This study uses an MRI scan to look at how your kidneys handle salt (sodium). It may help researchers better understand kidney function in healthy people and in people with chronic kidney disease.
This study uses MRI scans to track kidney disease progression in children and adults with ARPKD. It aims to better understand how the disease changes over time, which could help improve future care.
This trial checks whether a new kind of heart MRI (done without contrast dye) can help doctors see heart changes in people receiving hemodialysis. It may help improve how heart health is measured in dialysis care, especially for people with limited time.
This study uses MRI scans to look at how the brain controls salt and blood pressure. It is for people aged 40–60 with normal to slightly high blood pressure, who have no major health conditions.
This study looks at how salt builds up in the skin of people with chronic kidney disease. It involves different groups testing either sodium intake, sodium excretion, or water intake to see how these affect blood pressure and kidney function.
This trial uses a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method to look at kidney function. It may help doctors better understand and monitor kidney problems.
