Use of MRI for Assessing Stomach Relaxation in Response to a Meal

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Dyspepsia; Healthy Volunteers

• Registration Number: NCT00275743
• Lead Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

Brief Summary

This study is being done to test new way of measuring the relaxation of the stomach after a meal (called gastric accommodation) by using a MRI scan.
