Pancreas MRI during pregnancy could spot diabetes risk early
NCT ID NCT06784674
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study uses MRI to measure pancreas size in pregnant women and their babies, since smaller pancreases are linked to diabetes. Researchers will follow 87 women from early pregnancy to one year after birth. The goal is to see how pancreas changes relate to diabetes, which could lead to better prediction and care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors predict and manage diabetes during pregnancy earlier, improving health for mothers and babies.
What could go wrong
This is an early observational study with only 87 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It does not test a treatment, so it won't directly change care yet.
