Safer brain scans: no contrast needed for meningioma detection?
NCT ID NCT04113408
First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study aimed to see if special MRI techniques (FABIR sequences) could find meningiomas without using gadolinium contrast dye, which can build up in the body after many injections. Researchers planned to enroll 315 adults getting brain MRIs for meningioma screening or follow-up. The goal was to compare the new contrast-free method to the standard MRI with contrast. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
