Non-invasive 3D scan study for Marfan face features
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Skin clinical trials.
This study uses a non-invasive 3D scan to better measure facial features in people with Marfan syndrome. It may help researchers describe face differences more accurately, without needles or surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at skin cells (fibroblasts) from people with Marfan syndrome or other genetic conditions that cause thoracic aortic aneurysms. The goal is to understand how these cells behave, which may help improve future treatments.
This study collects biological samples and related health information for people with Marfan syndrome or similar inherited conditions. It helps researchers better understand these conditions and may lead to improved care for patients in the future.
This trial studies whether doing moderate exercise is safe and helpful for people with Marfan syndrome. It aims to see how exercise affects heart and health measures, like how the aorta and body respond over time.
This study looks at how a person’s ancestry might influence the facial appearance seen in rare inherited (genetic) diseases. You may be considered if you have unusual physical signs and doctors suspect a genetic cause.
This trial studies an adapted physical activity (exercise) program to support effort rehabilitation in children and teens with Marfan syndrome. It may help safely improve activity and fitness while monitoring heart-related risks.
This study tests whether a ketogenic (very low-carb) diet can help people with Marfan syndrome who have a chronic tear in their aorta (the main artery from the heart). If you qualify, you'll follow a special diet and be monitored to see if it slows the growth of your aortic aneurysm.
