Teen brain scans reveal what happens when cannabis stops

NCT ID NCT06124846

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how the brains of teens (ages 15-18) with cannabis use disorder change when they stop using cannabis for 6 weeks. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure brain activity related to reward and impulse control. Some teens will be paid to stay cannabis-free, while others will not be asked to stop. The goal is to learn more about how abstinence affects the brain, not to test a treatment.
