Trial summary

The present project aims at evaluating the diagnostic potential of high-field MRI (3 Teslas) for joint disease. At this field, given that isotropic image resolution of 400 microns can be obtained, one could expect an early detection of joint abnormalities. Read more about this study

About this study

The present project aims at evaluating the diagnostic potential of high-field MRI (3 Teslas) for joint disease. At this field, given that isotropic image resolution of 400 microns can be obtained, one could expect an early detection of joint abnormalities. The additional aim of this project will be to develop a quantitative analyse of the corresponding high-resolution images.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing high-field MRI (3 Teslas) in people with Abnormality and Inflammation, run by Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

can be obtained, one could expect an early detection of joint abnormalities (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Aug 2014.
