Game-Changing portable MRI could make brain scans less scary for kids

NCT ID NCT04629469

Summary

This study is testing a new, portable MRI machine designed to be easier and safer for children. It uses a much weaker magnet, so kids don't need to remove metal items or go into a tight, noisy tube. Researchers want to see if the images from this new, open scanner are as good as those from traditional MRI, CT, or ultrasound machines for diagnosing brain conditions.
