Filter by:The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of DOTAREM® in the body of children aged less than 2 years thanks to several blood samples (3 ml in total) taken following the administration of DOTAREM®. DOTAREM® is a contrast agent commonly used for enhancement of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to potentially improve the quality of the images and help the diagnosis. Children aged less than 2 years scheduled to undergo routine gadolinium-enhanced MRI of any body region may take part in the study. In this case they will receive DOTAREM®, a solution injected at the standard dose of 0.2mL/kg (0.1 mmol/kg) of body weight.
This study aim is to evaluate the needle positioning precision, compared to the real path planned by the physician on healthy voluntaries, by positioning a fictional needle, without inserting it. Additionally, this study will evaluate: - the robot precision, - the robot detection robustness, - the software and device ergonomics, - the device security.
Registry intends to prospectively collect data regarding the safety of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies in patients with cardiac pacemakers on implantable cardioverter defibrillators.
The purpose of the registry is to accumulate pre-and post-scan device interrogation data for the purpose of determining the risk of MRI for patients with implantable devices.
In this study, the investigators will develop and evaluate a novel intervention using standardized patients (SPs) -- or actors playing the roles of patients -- to enhance physicians' patient-centered counseling skills regarding two frequently overused, potentially inappropriate services in primary care: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for acute low back pain and bone densitometry in women at low-risk for osteoporosis. The investigators will further evaluate whether intervention effects on physician patient-centeredness generalize to counseling regarding other costly, unnecessary diagnostic tests.
The purpose of the present study is to make medically indicated state of the art/high end magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exams available to all infants in the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC) Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical value of the novel MRI-techniques DWI and gadofosveset-enhanced MRI for the management of rectal cancer patients.
Purpose of the study is to look at the safety (what are the side effects) and efficacy (how well does it work) of gadobutrol when used for taking images of the brain and spine. The results of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) will be compared to the results of images taken without contrast (gadobutrol).
The main purpose of this study is to collect data on the way gadobutrol is taken into, moves around, and is eliminated from, the body of children aged 0 to less than 2 years. The study will also evaluate safety and tolerability, and efficacy of gadobutrol. A maximum total amount of approximately 5 ml of blood will be needed for these analyses which will be drawn within 2-3 days. Gadobutrol is a contrast agent used for enhancement of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), potentially allowing better visibility of tissues in the body. Children aged under 2 years scheduled for a routine contrast-enhanced MRI examination of any body region may take part in this study, in which case they will receive gadobutrol as contrast agent intravenously at the standard dose of 0.1 mmol/kg (0.1 ml/Kg) of body weight. Only subjects without renal insufficiency of any intensity (i.e. estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate <80% of age adjusted normal value calculated based on the Schwartz formula) will be included in the trial. The duration of this study as a whole is around 1 year and the total number of children to be enrolled is 50. A child will be expected to take part in the study for around 7 days.
Background: - People with motor neuron disorders have changes in the parts of the brain that control movement. Some tests that are currently used to study these changes are magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). We don t know if MRI scans and TMS give the same results if done at different times in the same person. Researchers want to see if these tests produce different results if given to healthy adults on two separate occasions. Objectives: - To test the reliability of different tests of the brain used to study motor neuron disorders. Eligibility: - <TAB>Healthy individuals at least 35 years of age who have no history of neurological disorders and take no medications. - <TAB>Pregnant women may not participate. Design: - Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. - Participants will have two testing visits 1 to 6 months apart. - The first visit will have three parts. The first part is a neurological exam to test strength, sensation, reflexes, and coordination of movement. The second part will be TMS tests. The third part will involve an MRI scan to study the parts of the brain that control movement. - At the second visit, participants will have MRI scanning only.
