Spiral MRI Study: Better Brain Scans
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses an updated MRI technique to take detailed pictures of the brain. It includes both healthy people and those already scheduled for a brain MRI. The goal is to see if the new method provides clearer images.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You can understand and sign a consent form yourself
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have any metal implants, devices, or medical conditions that make an MRI unsafe
- You do not need IV sedation; if you take mild oral anxiety medicine for the MRI, you must have a prescription and a driver
- You are either a healthy volunteer or scheduled for a standard brain MRI

This study uses MRI scans to check and improve how medical teams measure brain changes. If you’re eligible, you’ll complete MRI safety screening and imaging while the team studies which scan measurements work best.
This research study tests new ways to take detailed pictures of your brain using MRI (a safe imaging machine). You'll help researchers develop better imaging methods by lying still in the scanner for up to 2 hours.
This study aims to improve how MRI scans are used to make diagnoses, by looking at people who already have an MRI planned as part of their care. If you qualify, your information and scan may be included to help researchers refine MRI-based diagnosis.
This study tests and fine-tunes new MRI scan methods on a research MRI machine. It aims to improve how MRI images are captured, which could help future patients get clearer scans.
This study tests improved MRI scan settings to get clearer images. You may be able to take part if you’re able to safely have an MRI and you meet basic study consent and contraception rules.
This study uses brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to look at changes in the brain after a stroke. It may help researchers better understand what happens in the brain over time and improve future care.
