NCT ID NCT07496684
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested an artificial intelligence (AI) system called Vision-LSTM to see if it could accurately diagnose a specific type of thyroid nodule (TI-RADS 4b) from ultrasound images. Researchers used images from 401 patients and compared the AI's performance to that of junior and senior doctors. The goal was to see if AI could help improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce the need for unnecessary biopsies.
