MRI Study of Kidney Donors, Recipients, and Healthy People
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study uses advanced MRI scans to look at kidney health in living donors, transplant recipients, and healthy people. It aims to find links between MRI results and kidney function, fibrosis (scarring), and aging.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are either approved as a living kidney donor, a recipient of a living-donor kidney, or a healthy volunteer.
- You must be able to lie still in an MRI machine (no metal implants, pacemakers, or severe claustrophobia).
- If you are a healthy control: your blood pressure is below 140/90 (with up to one medication allowed), your kidney function and urine tests are normal, and you are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses MRI scans to develop better imaging tools for kidney disease and to test them in people with kidney problems. It may help improve how doctors measure kidney health in the future.
This trial uses special MRI scans to see how blood flow in the transplanted kidney changes after your fistula is surgically closed. It may help doctors better understand what healthy recovery looks like after the procedure.
This study checks whether kidney MRI scans give consistent results when repeated. Healthy adults with normal blood pressure and kidney function are needed to help improve MRI techniques for future patients.
This study uses MRI scans to look at how Fabry disease affects the kidneys, including scarring, swelling, and oxygen levels. It may help researchers understand kidney problems better and find new ways to monitor the disease.
This study uses special MRI scans after a living-donor kidney transplant to check how well the kidney is working. It aims to see if MRI can help monitor kidney health without needing a biopsy.
This study tests if a special MRI (without dye) can accurately measure how well a transplanted kidney is working. It is for people who have received a kidney transplant or a combined kidney-pancreas transplant, and for living donors.
