Radiation-free Bone Imaging UTE MRI in Healthy and Diseased Patients

NCT03633032 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Last updated 2023-12-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In summary, the investigators want to investigate whether UTE sequences are capable to replace imaging techniques involving ionizing radiation for bone imaging in the future. This would improve patient care greatly and might reduce medical imaging associated cancer risk drastically from an epidemiological standpoint. This field of research can be considered cutting-edge. The investigators determine this study promising to provide substantial generalizable knowledge and hope that this study results will improve patient care worldwide considerably.
