New brain scan could help surgeons predict tumor 'Stickiness' before operating
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study is testing a special type of MRI scan called 3D MRE to see if it can measure how stiff and 'sticky' a brain tumor is before surgery. Researchers will scan 300 patients with a common type of brain tumor called a meningioma and compare the scan results to what surgeons f…

New scan could replace needle test for liver disease
Diagnosis Recruiting nowThis study aims to find a better, non-invasive way to measure pressure in the liver for people with cirrhosis. Researchers will compare two types of advanced MRI scans (3D and 2D) to see which one more accurately predicts liver pressure, which currently requires an invasive cathe…
