Mapping brain electrical properties with MRI
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans to map the brain's electrical properties in healthy volunteers and in people who have had surgery for a brain tumor (glioma). It aims to better understand brain function and tumor effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are either a healthy volunteer (no known brain condition) or you are part of a specific study for people with brain tumors (glioma).
- If you are a healthy volunteer, you must be able to have an MRI scan safely.
- If you have a brain tumor, you must already be enrolled in the IRB 16-002424 study and have had surgery for a suspected or known glioma.

This study uses special MRI scans to better “characterize” (study) gliomas, a type of brain tumor, using information from your brain tissue. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with a suspected or confirmed glioma and you already need a biopsy or surgery.
This study uses MRI scans to look for signs of brain tumour activity without needing additional surgery. If you are already having brain surgery, the researchers will compare the MRI images with the tumour tissue to better understand the cancer.
This study uses a special brain scanner (like an MRI, but measuring brain waves) to look at electrical patterns inside gliomas before surgery. The goal is to better understand these tumours, which may help doctors improve treatment in the future.
This trial uses a special MRI scan to study the genetics of gliomas (a type of brain tumor). It may help doctors better understand your tumor and choose the right treatment. You can join if you have a suspected or confirmed low- or high-grade glioma that still has a measurable tumor after surgery.
This study uses brain “mapping” tests (with MRI and possibly other methods) to identify important brain functions near a tumor. It may help your care team plan a safer surgery by understanding which brain areas do critical tasks.
This study uses special MRI techniques to better understand how a high-grade brain tumor spreads into nearby brain tissue. The information may help doctors plan safer and more effective tumor removal.
