Upright Open MRI for Brain Imaging in Children - a Pilot Study — Heads-Up  

Brain Tumor Clinical Trial

Official title:
Upright Open MRI for Brain Imaging in Children - a Pilot Study

Clinical Trial Summary

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE To establish feasibility and acceptability of diagnostic brain MRI in young children for specified indications using an upright MRI system without sedation or anaesthesia. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES To establish how young children who undergo brain MRI using upright MRI view the experience To establish how parents / carers of young children who undergo brain MRI using the upright MRI view the experience for their child and for themselves. To establish how image quality compares between brain MRI using the upright MRI scanner and the standard MRI scanner used in clinical practice.

Clinical Trial Description

Study Design Feasibility study collecting data on image quality and experience of upright open MRI scanning (performed in addition to standard clinical MRI scan), and comparing outcome measures to standard supine MRI scans, in children referred for clinical MRI scanning for (i) symptoms or signs suggestive of brain tumour and (ii) symptoms or signs suggestive of shunt blockage in children with a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt Study Participants Participants that have been referred for brain MRI for symptoms and signs suggestive of brain tumour or who have known VP shunts with a clinical suspicion of shunt dysfunction. 20 participants in total, aiming for an even split between these two groups but will be flexible based on the local clinical case load. Planned Size of Sample (if applicable) 20 young school-aged children (5 to 10 years) referred for brain MRI at NUH. The child participant's parents will be simultaneously recruited ;
