New Low-Field MRI could spot brain damage in comatose patients
NCT ID NCT07526701
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a low-field MRI (0.23-T) is safe and practical for patients who are on a heart-lung machine after a cardiac arrest. The goal was to see if doctors could use this MRI to find brain injuries early without causing harm. 36 unconscious patients took part, and the main focus was on completing the scan safely.
