AI eye on lungs: new scan test could spot severity of breathing failure
NCT ID NCT05278390
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing whether a computer can automatically measure how much lung tissue is damaged in patients with severe breathing problems from COVID-19 or after surgery. Researchers will compare the computer's lung measurements to standard severity scores in 500 patients. The goal is to see if this automated method can help doctors quickly assess how sick a patient is.
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 could lead to a faster, automated way to assess lung injury severity in respiratory failure, helping doctors make quicker decisions.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not change patient outcomes directly, and the automated method might not be accurate enough for all patients.
