Scientists use High-Tech scans to map muscular dystrophy progression
NCT ID NCT01484678
Summary
This study aims to develop better ways to track muscular dystrophy progression using MRI scans instead of invasive tests. Researchers will follow 550 boys and men with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy for 5-10 years, comparing their muscle scans to healthy individuals. The goal is to create reliable measurement tools that can help future drug trials determine if treatments are working.
