MRI study of blood-vessel and tissue signs in child liver disease
Part of Digestive system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial uses MRI scans to look for “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs in the liver, to better understand autoimmune liver diseases in children and teens. It may help doctors track disease and improve care by finding imaging patterns linked to illness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 6 and 23 years old
- Have a diagnosis (or strong suspicion) of autoimmune liver disease such as AIH or PSC
- You have not had a liver transplant in the past
- You are not pregnant and can follow pregnancy rules during the study
- You can safely have an MRI (no incompatible metal/pacemaker, and not severely claustrophobic)
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study uses MRI scans to find “biomarkers,” or imaging clues, that may help predict how autoimmune liver conditions will progress in children and young adults. If you qualify, you may get MRI imaging to see whether it relates to future health outcomes.
This study checks whether annual liver scans using MRI (including a special MRI procedure and possibly contrast dye) can help people with primary sclerosing cholangitis. It may improve how the condition is monitored over time.
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure blood flow in the liver and detect liver damage. Researchers are testing whether this new imaging method can help diagnose liver disease early and track how well treatments are working.
This study uses advanced MRI scans to get a clearer picture of liver fat, inflammation, and scarring in people with chronic liver disease. It aims to help doctors diagnose and understand liver problems better.
This study uses a PET/MRI scan to take detailed pictures of the liver and bile ducts in people with PSC. The goal is to better understand the disease and possibly find new ways to track it.
This study looks at MRI images taken as part of routine care to see if they can help predict future health problems in people with liver disease. If you already have an MRI scheduled for clinical reasons, this may help doctors better estimate risk over time.
