New Ways of Doing Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Children and Adults (NCT04643015)
New Image Techniques for Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Children and Adults
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study is being done to see how we can prevent problems caused by movement during the MRI scan. Different ways of doing the scan (techniques) will be tested to see if they are practical and can prevent problems related to motion. For example, changes in the timing of the magnetic field and the radio waves will be examined, and at changes in the way a computer is used to process the images. The new techniques will be compared with the techniques that are usually used.
Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (1 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (6 items).
