MRI tests to improve brain scan measurements
This study uses MRI scans to check and improve how medical teams measure brain changes. If you’re eligible, you’ll complete MRI safety screening and imaging while the team studies which scan measurements work best.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Be in generally good health and able to complete the study paperwork
- Be able to understand the instructions and sign informed consent
- Have a recent neurological physical exam recorded in your medical chart before your first MRI
- Complete an MRI safety questionnaire at each visit

This study develops new MRI (body imaging) research methods to help aging research. You may qualify if you’re an adult who can consent and follow study steps, and your participation supports exploratory (not diagnostic) aging-related research.
This study tests how people learn from choices and make decisions using computer tasks. Some participants also complete brain scans (MRI) to see how the brain activity matches behavior.
This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
This study uses MRI techniques to measure natural chemical “metabolites” in the brain and muscle. You may be able to join if you’re generally healthy and can safely complete a long MRI scan.
This study tests different MRI imaging techniques to improve how scans look and measure targets. You may be able to join with or without a contrast dye, and you’ll need to travel to the NIH for follow-up visits.
This study aims to improve MRI scan settings used when studying brain diseases that affect memory and movement. You would be asked to undergo MRI scanning as a healthy volunteer to help optimize the imaging process.
