First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study looks at whether special scans (ultrasound and DECT) can spot uric acid crystals in people with high uric acid levels who have never had gout symptoms. Researchers will follow 21 participants for up to 5 years to see if those with crystals are more likely to develop gout. The goal is to find a way to predict and possibly prevent gout flares.
