AI-Powered ankle MRI aims for sharper images, faster scans
NCT ID NCT07274423
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using artificial intelligence (AI) in ankle MRI scans can produce better images and improve patient satisfaction. About 120 adults with ankle injuries will be randomly assigned to receive either an AI-assisted MRI or a standard MRI. The goal is to see if the AI technology makes scans faster and clearer, helping doctors diagnose ankle problems more effectively.
