Check Brain Temp Trial

Completed

Conditions studied: the Focus of the Clinical Trial is on the Brain Temperatures in Normal Human Subjects

In brief

Despite some controversial results, many patients and animal studies have suggested significant benefit of using hypothermia treatment in stroke patient population. However, certain questions for how to applying this therapy properly such as when to start, what is the optimal temperature, how long is the duration, and what is the best hypothermia technology that may avoid the complications including focal soft tissue injuries are still remain questioned. In this study, we will utilize the linear relationship of temperature vs. chemical shift in MR Spectroscopy to measure the brain temperatures in normal men.
