MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING

This study tests whether a smartphone app can help people receiving medication for opioid use disorder stay drug-free. The app uses location tracking to send personalized alerts when a person enters a high-risk area for relapse. Researchers will also use brain scans to understand…

This study aimed to see if a botulinum toxin (Botox) injection into the knee could relieve arthritis pain better than a steroid injection. Researchers planned to use special MRI scans to measure inflammation. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so …

This study tests whether acupuncture can reduce pain in people with sickle cell disease. Researchers will use brain scans and other tests to understand how acupuncture works. The study involves 60 participants aged 14 to 80 who have chronic pain or recent pain crises.

This study tests a new type of magnetic brain stimulation for people with ongoing symptoms after a mild concussion. Fifteen adults will receive 30 short treatment sessions and have detailed MRI scans before and after. The goal is to see if this treatment reduces symptoms and impr…

This study looks at whether virtual reality training before Gamma Knife brain surgery can improve pain relief for people with trigeminal neuralgia, a severe facial pain condition. Researchers will also use MRI scans and artificial intelligence to find brain patterns that predict …

This study looks at whether treating chewing problems in older adults can improve memory and thinking. Eighty people aged 65 to 80 with poor chewing ability will get dental work to fix their bite. Researchers will test their memory and brain function before and after treatment to…

This study looks at how being in ketosis (a state where your body burns fat for fuel) changes the way alcohol affects your brain and body. Healthy adults will follow three different 3-day diets and then drink about 4-5 alcoholic beverages. Researchers will use breath tests and br…

This study looks at whether early MRI scans can show if a prostate tumor is responding to a precise type of radiation therapy (SBRT). Researchers will compare MRI changes with PSA levels in 28 men with intermediate- to high-risk localized prostate cancer. The goal is to better un…
