Portable MRI could revolutionize coma prognosis after cardiac arrest

NCT ID NCT07177755

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study tests whether a portable, very low-field MRI can detect brain damage in coma patients after cardiac arrest as well as standard high-field MRI does. Researchers will scan 60 participants (30 coma patients and 30 healthy volunteers) multiple times over two weeks. The goal is to see if bedside MRI can reliably predict neurological recovery, potentially making advanced brain imaging available in intensive care units.
