Better imaging to see vascular malformations
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether new imaging techniques (called MSOT and ULM) can better see vascular malformations. It may help doctors diagnose and understand these conditions without the need for risky procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a confirmed or suspected vascular malformation, which is an abnormal tangle of blood vessels that can be arteriovenous, venous, or lymphatic.
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You need to be able to give your own written consent to join the study.
- You should have had or be planning to have imaging (like an MRI or ultrasound) to confirm the diagnosis.
- You should not have any physical, psychological, or psychiatric conditions that, in the doctor's judgment, could make it unsafe for you to participate or affect the quality of the study data.

This study tests a treatment that uses microwave energy to shrink painful or troublesome abnormal blood vessels (vascular malformations). It may help reduce symptoms like pain and swelling without open surgery.
This trial tests whether the study drug KP-001 can help reduce symptoms like pain, fatigue, or bleeding caused by certain vascular malformations (abnormal blood vessel growths) that can't be surgically removed or haven't responded to other treatments. It's for people age 2 and older with specific conditions such as common venous malformations, lymphatic malformations, or KTS/CLOVES syndrome.
This study uses a special imaging machine (MSOT) to look at different types of swelling in the legs, such as lipedema and lymphedema. It aims to help doctors better understand and tell these conditions apart.
This trial is testing a new, non-invasive imaging technique called MSOT to look at head and neck tumors. It compares images from people with tumors to healthy volunteers, aiming to improve how doctors evaluate tissue before surgery.
This study uses a special camera to take detailed pictures of artery blockages in people with heart disease, stroke, or mini-stroke. It may help doctors better understand how to treat multiple blocked arteries.
This study collects extra blood (and sometimes tissue during procedures) to look for markers that can help doctors better understand vascular anomalies. It may not be a treatment, but it can improve future care by finding patterns linked to the condition.
