Trial categories: Brain

Sponsoring organisation: NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre

Volunteer for an imaging study of your brain activity?

We are seeking healthy volunteers aged 18-80 to help investigate the blood flow and chemistry of the brain.

You would need to visit the Acute Vascular Imaging Centre (AVIC), at the University of Oxford, based in the John Radcliffe Hospital once – the session will last approximately 2-3 hours in total. We will use MRI, which is a type of scan that allows us to measure these changes in the brain. MRI is safe and does not involve any radiation and takes 45 min – 1 hour.

You will be paid for your attendance and provided with refreshments.

Who are we looking for?

Healthy with no serious medical problems, a good understanding of English, aged 18-80 who do not have any metal in their head or body (except fillings), are not pregnant or breastfeeding, do not take regular pain killers, and do not have any metallic implants (e.g. a pacemaker).
