Better lung MRI for suspicious CT findings
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a special MRI to better understand suspicious spots on lung CT scans. The MRI may help tell if a spot is more likely to be cancer, which could reduce unnecessary procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 80 years old.
- You have smoked at least a pack a day for 20 years (or equivalent) and either still smoke or quit within the last 15 years.
- You had a lung cancer screening CT scan at the University of Florida that showed a spot that needs more testing (Lung-RADS 4).
- You can have an MRI (no metal in your body, not very anxious in small spaces).
- You have not had any recent lung infections or surgery that might affect the MRI.

This study looks at whether MRI scans and blood-related biomarkers can help better understand lung nodules found during routine lung cancer screening. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer follow-up versus less intensive monitoring.
This study tests whether using an MRI combined with a special type of CT scan can effectively monitor lung nodules over time. It may help people at high risk for lung cancer avoid repeated radiation from regular CT scans.
This trial uses advanced CT and MRI scans to make lung cancer screening more accurate and safer. It aims to better find and understand lung nodules, helping doctors decide if they are cancerous without unnecessary procedures.
This trial tests a new way to plan radiation therapy for lung cancer using a special MRI that shows how well different parts of your lungs work. The goal is to avoid damaging healthy lung areas, which might help people with prior lung cancer or other breathing problems like COPD.
This trial uses a new, non-invasive way to screen for lung cancer by combining your breath, blood, and CT scan images. The goal is to figure out whether a nodule found on a CT scan is cancerous or not, which could help patients avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study tests whether advanced MRI scans can better detect and track lung scarring in people with certain types of pulmonary fibrosis. It may help doctors understand how well your treatment is working, without extra radiation from CT scans.
