Ultrasound brain imaging for preterm infant outcomes
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses a special 3D ultrasound to take detailed images of the brain in very preterm babies. The goal is to find early signs that can help doctors better predict how these babies will develop as they grow.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born very early, between 23 weeks + 0 days and 29 weeks + 6 days of pregnancy.
- You (the parent or legal guardian) are willing to give written permission for your baby to join the study.
- Your baby is not receiving care focused only on comfort (palliative care).
- Your baby does not have a known major chromosome problem or major birth defect found after birth.
- Your baby has health insurance coverage (in France, social security).

This study uses a safe, non-invasive ultrasound technique to measure brain activity in newborn babies. It aims to understand brain development and connectivity in preterm infants, infants with birth-related oxygen deprivation, growth-restricted babies, siblings of children with autism, and healthy full-term babies.
This study looks at early brain scans and other markers to help predict and improve outcomes for newborns with brain injuries that might lead to cerebral palsy. It aims to find better ways to identify these high-risk babies early.
This study uses an MRI scan to look at how the lungs develop in babies born very early (before 29 weeks of pregnancy). The goal is to see if early MRI images can help predict future breathing problems, so doctors can better support these infants.
This trial studies the best ways to diagnose cerebral palsy early in babies born very preterm (before 29 weeks). It will help doctors find signs of brain injury sooner so that babies can get the right support early on.
This study uses safe MRI scans during natural sleep to look at how babies' brains develop, especially those at risk for cerebral palsy. It aims to find early signs of movement problems so treatment can start sooner.
This study uses ultrasound to examine fetal brain and spine development in pregnant women. It compares scans from pregnancies where a brain or spine issue is suspected with those from healthy pregnancies to improve understanding and diagnosis.
