CEUS Evaluation of Hydrocephalus in Neonates and Infants
Recruiting
Hydrocephalus affects up to 2 out of every 500 births and results in long-term disability in up to 78% of those affected. The standard treatment of hydrocephalus is cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion via placement of an invasive ventricular shunt to relieve elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). The clinical decision for CSF diversion is based on the ventricular size and clinical symptoms which are not robust indicators of brain health in neonatal hydrocephalus. The purpose of this study is to a... Read More

Milrinone for Prevention of Post-ligation Cardiac Syndrome Trial
Recruiting
The goal of this Phase 3, randomized, masked clinical trial is to is to find out whether milrinone, when given to infants after PDA closure, will help the heart work better by supplying oxygen to the lungs and tissues. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. to determine if milrinone decreases the risk of death or PLCS within 7 days of the procedure, compared to standard treatment; and 2. to determine the effects of milrinone on two-year survival and neurodevelopmental outcome.

Study of Biodistribution, Metabolism, Excretion and Brain Uptake of 11C-HY-2-15
Recruiting
The current protocol is to determine the biodistribution, metabolism, excretion and brain uptake of 11C HY-2-15. The goal of this radiotracer is to quantify alpha-synuclein that is abnormally deposited in the brain of people with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). The investigators will compare uptake in people with MSA with people with Parkinson disease (PD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) as well as healthy volunteers.
