About this study

Official title: MR Images Variation With or Without Denture Wear. Motion Artifacts Related With Tongue Movements

The objective of this study was to compare level of artifact while tongue at rest and in motion of dentulous subjects.

Read the detailed description

The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful to diagnose soft tissue morphology, especially to detect cancer and disk displacement with temporomandibular disorders. The prevalence of tongue cancer may increase with ageing population. A clear MR image is indispensable for clinical diagnosis. However, tongue motion associated with the habitual or swallowing tongue movement may cause artifacts on MRI. This occurrence of motion artifact is speculated to be prominent with the patients without the occlusal support. The objective of this pilot study was to compare level of artifact while tongue at rest and in motion of dentulous subjects.

Being tested
denture wear.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing denture wear. in people with Magnetic Resonance Imaging, run by Nihon University at 1 site in Japan.

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 2 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 11 Apr 2018. 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 Japan. 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?

Luminance standard deviation value on MR image (time frame: MR Imaging was collected with each condition.Through study completion, an average of 2 year). 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 11 Apr 2018.
