First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study gathers video and hand-movement data from 300 patients and up to 20 doctors during routine bronchoscopy procedures. Researchers aim to use this data to create machine learning models that could help train new doctors. No new treatments or drugs are involved, and patients follow their standard care.
