NCT ID NCT06873373
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study tested an artificial intelligence (AI) model to automatically detect endometriosis lesions in real time during laparoscopic surgery. Researchers used video recordings from 26 patients to train and validate the AI. The goal was to see if the AI could accurately identify endometriosis tissue, which could help surgeons during procedures.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this AI could help surgeons spot endometriosis lesions more accurately during surgery, potentially improving diagnosis and treatment.
What could go wrong
This was a small, completed study focused on developing and validating the AI model, not testing its effect on patient outcomes. The AI may not work as well in real-world settings or on different equipment.
