MIRAI-MRI: Comparing Screening MRI for Patients at High Risk for Breast Cancer Identified by Mirai and Tyrer-Cuzick
NCT05968157
Recruiting
Accurate risk assessment is essential for the success of population screening programs and early detection efforts in breast cancer. Mirai is a new deep learning model based on full resolution mammograms. Mirai is a mammography-based deep learning model designed to predict risk at multiple timepoints, leverage potentially missing risk factor information, and produce predictions that are consistent across mammography machines. Mirai was trained on a large dataset from Massachusetts General Hospi... Read More

Investigating Exercise in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 2 (DM2)
NCT06716931
Recruiting
An exercise regimen (PRIME: Proximal Resistance In-House Movement Exercise) has been designed for patients with myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2). The hypothesis is that this patient-friendly physical therapist (PT)-guided exercise program associates with improved functional capacity and muscle composition in DM2 in this two-period two-sequence cross-over study. Thus, participant will be randomized to one of the three possible groups. Participants in GROUP A will perform exercise routine in clinic... Read More
