NCT ID NCT06491732
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a device called the mScan to see if it can track how ALS progresses over time. Researchers will measure electrical signals in muscles and compare them to standard tests. The goal is to find a simple, objective way to monitor the disease that could be used at home. About 80 people with ALS will take part for 8 months.
