New MRI scan could spare NASH patients painful liver biopsies
NCT ID NCT04054310
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new, non-invasive MRI scan (called cT1) to see if it can accurately diagnose NASH, a serious liver disease. Currently, doctors need to take a small sample of liver tissue with a needle (biopsy) to confirm the diagnosis. The study will compare the MRI results with biopsy results in 225 adults who are already scheduled for a biopsy. If the scan works well, it could replace the need for many painful biopsies in the future.
