Liver imaging study using new biomarkers
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a new type of MRI scan can better detect and measure liver disease, including fatty liver and scarring, compared to standard CT scans. If you have chronic liver disease, this study may help improve how we diagnose and track it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You have a scheduled CT scan that looks at your liver (with or without contrast dye)
- You are able to have an MRI scan (no metal implants, claustrophobia, etc.)
- You have a long-term liver condition, like fatty liver disease or liver scarring (fibrosis)
- You can understand and agree to the study procedures (give informed consent)
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 45 (due to MRI machine size limits)

This study tests a new ultrasound device that uses sound waves to measure fat in the liver without needles or surgery. It is for people with a type of fatty liver disease called MASLD or MASH, who are already getting an MRI to check their liver.
This trial compares a new ultrasound technique to a standard MRI scan for measuring liver fat. It may help improve how we diagnose and monitor fatty liver disease.
This study uses a new MRI technique to measure how metabolic fatty liver disease affects your body and to track your health over time. It aims to improve understanding of the condition and guide treatment.
This study uses ultrasound to look at the liver and help classify a type of fatty liver disease called MASLD. It may help doctors better understand and diagnose this condition.
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure blood flow in the liver and detect liver damage. Researchers are testing whether this new imaging method can help diagnose liver disease early and track how well treatments are working.
This study uses MRI scans to look at the livers of children with obesity, to find early signs of liver problems. It may help doctors understand how to protect the liver in children.
