Ultrasound test in adults with type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a series of ultrasound treatments can improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes. You may be asked to stay on your current diabetes pills and avoid certain other medicines during the study.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two ways of tracking blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes who use insulin. It aims to see if one method helps manage glucose better, which could improve daily control and long-term health.
This study tests whether focused ultrasound can help people with type 2 diabetes by gently stimulating nerves. It may offer a new way to improve glucose control without medication.
This study tests whether using ultrasound scans in diabetes clinics can help people avoid insulin-induced lipohypertrophy (lumps under the skin from injections). It is for people with diabetes who use insulin injections or a pump and have unstable glucose levels despite using a continuous glucose monitor.
This study tests whether a mix of intense interval exercise and a non-surgical ultrasound treatment can improve cholesterol and fat levels in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help lower your risk of heart problems.
This study checks whether a special ultrasound scan can clearly picture the pancreas in people with type 1 diabetes and in non-diabetes control participants. It may help researchers better understand the pancreas in diabetes.
