NCT ID NCT06203626

First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study compares a new portable ultra-low field (ULF) MRI to standard MRI for detecting brain diseases like stroke, cancer, and epilepsy. About 200 people (ages 3 and older) with or without neurological symptoms will get both scans to see if the portable version works just as well. The goal is to make MRI more accessible to people who face barriers like distance or cost.
