NCT ID NCT07172165

First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 30 times

Summary

This study involves 850 participants and focuses on improving how doctors detect microembolic signals (tiny clots) in the brain using ultrasound. These signals can predict future strokes, but current detection methods are complex and vary between experts. The goal is to create a standard, reliable way to classify these signals, which could help prevent strokes in the future.
