Vibration methods for neck stiffness measurement
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests different vibration sources for measuring neck stiffness using a special ultrasound technique. It helps healthy volunteers by checking how well we can measure neck tissue stiffness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a healthy adult
- You have no current neck stiffness or mobility issues
- You can lie on your back with your neck supported for up to 90 minutes
- You are not currently being treated for thyroid, gland, or lymph node problems

This trial tests if a gentle ultrasound treatment can reduce neck pain and stiffness. It may be an option if you have ongoing neck pain and haven't had neck procedures recently.
This study tests whether gentle vibration applied to the neck can help relieve pain, numbness, or tingling caused by a pinched nerve in the neck. It's for people with moderate to severe neck pain or arm pain who haven't had neck surgery.
This study tests whether a gentle vibration device placed on the neck can improve head posture in people with cervical dystonia (neck muscle spasms). The goal is to find the best vibration strength to help reduce symptoms.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation device (TENS) applied to the neck can reduce muscle stiffness and pain in people with ongoing neck pain. If you have had neck pain for at least 6 weeks and are willing to avoid certain medications the day before, you may be able to join.
This trial uses a special ultrasound technique called shear wave elastography to measure how stiff fatty deposits (plaques) are in your neck arteries. It aims to see whether plaque stiffness can help doctors better understand your stroke risk.
This study tests a new, easy way to measure how well your neck moves, using small sensors on your head and a simple tool. It is for healthy adults and may help improve future neck care.
