This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This study is testing new ways to use MRI and magnetic resonance spectroscopy to get better pictures of body fat and tissue structure. Researchers will scan 250 healthy volunteers aged 12 to 89 to see how well these advanced imaging methods work. The goal is to improve how we measure body composition and function, not to treat any disease.
