Official title
Evaluation of Hyperfine Low Field Strength Portable Point-of-Care Magnetic Resonance Imaging System in Hydrocephalus and Other Conditions Prompting Outpatient Brain Imaging
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Participants with known or suspected hydrocephalus will receive brain scans using the Hyperfine, low field strength, portable, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system in addition to their scheduled outpatient standard of care clinical computed tomography (CT) or MRI scan. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of using the Hyperfine system in an outpatient setting and to compare its diagnostic performance to standard clinical imaging. Outpatients with other known or suspected neurological disorders or conditions prompting routine clinical brain imaging with MRI or CT will also be enrolled and the diagnostic performance of low field scans compared to that of the same day standard of care clinical imaging.
