This study looks at whether magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), a special type of MRI, can accurately measure liver scarring (fibrosis) in people with chronic hepatitis B. Researchers will compare MRE results to standard liver biopsies in 600 adults. If MRE works well, it coul…

This study is testing whether a special type of MRI called magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) can measure how stiff a meningioma brain tumor is before surgery. Researchers will compare the MRE results with what surgeons find during the operation and with lab tests on the tumor…

This study is testing whether a special MRI technique called magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) can measure how stiff a spinal cord tumor is and how strongly it sticks to surrounding tissue before surgery. Knowing this could help surgeons choose the best approach and make oper…

This study is testing whether a special MRI scan called 3D-MRE can accurately detect high blood pressure in the liver (portal hypertension) caused by cirrhosis or advanced liver disease. Currently, doctors use an invasive catheter procedure (HVPG) to measure this pressure. The st…

This study tests whether a 3D MRI scan (3D-MRE) is better than a standard 2D MRI scan at detecting liver scarring (cirrhosis) and high blood pressure in the liver (portal hypertension). Researchers will compare both scans to the current gold-standard catheter measurement in 100 a…

This study follows 1,500 people recently diagnosed with lung cancer to see if their diet, lifestyle, and emotional well-being are linked to how the disease progresses. Researchers will collect blood, urine, stool, and tumor samples to analyze biological markers, including gut bac…

This study explores whether advanced MRI scans can noninvasively diagnose and track diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Researchers will scan 150 people—including DKD patients and healthy volunteers—using multiple MRI techniques. The goal is to see if these scans can predict kidney fu…

This study is testing whether an artificial intelligence system can predict serious complications in people hospitalized with a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs). Researchers will analyze CT scans from 2,000 adults to see if the AI can identify who is likely to die o…

This study looks at whether information from CT scans, along with lab tests, can predict which patients with a blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism) will have serious problems within 30 days. Researchers will collect data from 300 patients to build a prediction tool. The g…

This study is testing whether a special MRI technique called MR elastography can detect kidney scarring (fibrosis) in people with early chronic kidney disease. Researchers will scan 200 adults—some with kidney disease and some healthy—and track their kidney function for two years…

This study uses a special MRI technique called magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) to measure how stiff and sticky brain tumors (gliomas) are. Researchers will compare these measurements with what surgeons see during operations and with the tumor's genetic makeup. The goal is t…
