New 5-Minute brain scanner could speed up ER triage

NCT ID NCT07490418

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is testing a new device called TES HT100 that uses low-power electromagnetic waves to screen for brain injuries in adults coming to the emergency room with mild head trauma or certain neurological symptoms. The device is non-invasive, takes about 5 minutes, and gives a simple yes/no result. Researchers will compare its accuracy to standard head CT scans to see if it can help doctors decide who needs further testing.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Temnographic Brain Screening Examination (TES HT100 device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could provide a quick, non-invasive way to screen for brain injuries in the emergency room, potentially reducing unnecessary CT scans and speeding up patient care.
What could go wrong
This is an early validation study, so the device may not prove accurate enough to replace CT scans. It is also only tested in adults with mild symptoms, so results may not apply to all patients.
