Lumbar spine MRI database study for back pain
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study is creating a database of MRI images of the lower back to help doctors better understand and treat low back pain. If you are an adult with low back pain and had your MRI at the CHUM hospital in Montreal, you may be able to participate.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial is studying how well MRI can evaluate low back pain in women between 40 and 60 years old. It may help doctors better understand the cause of your pain.
This study asks adults with low back pain to complete an online questionnaire so researchers can better understand how low back pain affects daily life. Your answers may help build a larger “core dataset” for future research.
This study looks at how the brain, gut, and mind are linked in people with low back pain. It uses brain scans, stool samples, and psychological tests to understand what causes pain and how to better treat it.
This study compares what doctors see on MRI scans with what patients experience as symptoms from worn or bulging discs in the lower back. It helps researchers understand which MRI findings matter most for patient care.
This research study uses MRI brain scans to understand how chronic low back pain changes the way your brain processes touch and movement. You'll interact with a special touch-sensitive surface while your brain activity is recorded, helping researchers develop better pain treatments.
This study looks at the tissue in your lower back using ultrasound and physical exams. It tests a treatment to see if it helps people with new or long-term low back pain, and also compares results to people without pain.
