Study Summary
This trial is testing a new MRI scan that uses AI to see if it can predict neurofibromatosis type 1 in children.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for pediatric patients aged 5 to less than 18 with confirmed Neurofibromatosis Type 1. It's open even if they turn 18 during the study. However, it excludes those needing sedation for imaging, with allergies to animal dander or asthma triggered by animals, ferromagnetic implants or foreign bodies, and claustrophobia.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests a new whole-body MRI technique paired with AI in detecting pre-malignant lesions in kids with Neurofibromatosis Type 1. The goal is to check how reliable the scans are over time and predict changes from initial scan to follow-up at one year.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves MRI scans which are non-invasive, there are typically no direct side effects associated with the procedure itself. However, discomfort due to lying still or being in an enclosed space may occur.

Study Objectives
Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary outcome measures
Radionuclide Imaging
Secondary outcome measures
For change over time, the initial scan imaging using T1 and apparent diffusion coefficient (ACD) imaging, the baseline scan will be compared to the third scan, which is performed 12 months (+/- 3 months) after the baseline scan.
