New muscle scanner could revolutionize ALS tracking

NCT ID NCT06491732

First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026

Summary

This study is testing a device called the mScan, which uses a gentle electrical current to measure muscle health in people with ALS. The goal is to see if this device can track how the disease progresses over time better than current methods. About 80 participants will use the device at home over 8 months. This research does not offer a treatment but aims to improve how we measure ALS in future trials.
