Improving MRI techniques for multiple organs in healthy volunteers

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to enhance MRI data acquisition techniques by optimizing MRI sequences for various organs. It will involve up to 200 healthy participants who will undergo a screening process followed by two MRI scans to assess the repeatability and reproducibility of multiparametric MRI. Participants will be recruited through various channels, including social media and Perspectum's networks, and will provide informed consent before participation.

Why it matters

Who can join: the full rules

Inclusion Criteria:

* Adults aged 18 years and older
* Participant is willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study
* The participant has a level of English proficiency that allows them to communicate well with the investigator and could comply with study requirements.
* The participant is willing and able to undergo MRI scan.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Any contraindication to magnetic resonance imaging (incl. pregnancy, nonremovable electronic implants including cochlear implants, infusion pumps, and pacemakers, shrapnel injury, severe claustrophobia, allergic reaction to contrast agents)
* Any other cause, including a significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the participant at risk because of participation in the study, or may influence the participant's ability to participate in the study
* The participant may be excluded where body habitus is likely to make MRI or echocardiography/ultrasound uncomfortable or unlikely to yield analysable images, and BMI more than 40-45
