Slow and steady: new study aims to curb MRI-Induced vertigo
NCT ID NCT06062368
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests if entering an MRI machine more slowly can reduce the dizziness and vertigo some people feel near strong magnets. Researchers will have 100 participants enter the MRI at different speeds (20 seconds to 3 minutes) and report their symptoms. The goal is to find a simple way to make MRI scans more comfortable.
