Imaging test for healthy volunteers
This study tests a new imaging agent that could help doctors see a specific protein in the brain related to inflammation. It is only for healthy adults to see if the agent is safe and works as expected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be 18 years or older and generally healthy.
- You need to be able to lie flat for at least two hours for a scan.

This study tests a special imaging agent called 11C-JMJ-129 to see how it behaves in the brain and body of healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand a brain protein called PDE4D, which may be linked to mood and anxiety disorders.
This study tests new imaging techniques, like MRI and CT scans, to better see heart and blood vessel problems. It may help doctors find heart disease earlier and guide treatment.
This study tests a new imaging agent that may help see plaque buildup in the carotid arteries, which are the main arteries in the neck. It is looking for healthy volunteers to help establish a normal baseline for future scans.
This Phase 1 study tests a PET scan to measure inflammation-related changes in the brain using a medication called ketoprofen. It may help researchers understand which people with certain brain diseases could benefit from treatments aimed at inflammation.
This study tests a special MRI method that uses lower energy exposure. It aims to improve how well researchers can scan the heart and other organs while keeping the scan as safe and comfortable as possible.
This study tests a new radioactive dye called [18F]GATT-44 to see how well it can show a specific brain protein on a PET scan. It may help researchers better understand brain conditions in the future.
