Study of aging bones and joints using advanced scans
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial uses scans like X-rays, CT, or MRI to study how bones and joints age. It aims to understand aging-related problems and may help develop better ways to detect or treat them.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have had a scan (X-ray, CT, or MRI) of a bone or joint area
- The area scanned has no birth defects or past injuries that changed its shape
- You do not have any metal plates, screws, or implants in the bones being studied
- You have not had a bone tumor or other cancer
- You have not used steroid medication for a long time or had chemotherapy or radiation in the last 6 months

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study collects information and samples around the time of certain bone or joint surgeries (like joint replacement or fracture repair) to learn what factors help or harm bone healing. The results may help find better targets to improve long-term bone health and recovery.
This study tests whether artificial intelligence can help identify people at risk for weak bones (osteoporosis) using chest X-rays. If you qualify, you'll be randomly assigned to either standard screening or AI-enhanced screening to see which approach works better.
This trial is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) model that uses X-ray images to predict bone density. If you have X-rays and a bone density scan, the AI may help doctors screen for osteoporosis without extra tests.
This study checks if CT scans can measure bone and muscle health as well as standard tests in older adults. If you've had a recent CT scan and simple strength or walking tests, your data may help improve care for seniors.
This study looks at bone health in people over 50 who have had a low-impact fracture in the last two years but do not have osteoporosis. It will help doctors better understand who might need treatment to prevent future breaks.
This study checks if a new computer program can find people at risk for osteoporosis more easily, using CT scans you already had. If you are found to be high risk, you'll get a free bone density test (DXA) to confirm, and help improve this tool.
