New camera tech could spot preterm birth risk early
NCT ID NCT04661553
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a special camera (Mueller polarimetric colposcopy) to see if it can measure changes in the cervix during pregnancy. The goal is to find patterns that could help predict if a baby will be born early (preterm). Researchers will study 683 pregnant women, both with low and high risk of preterm birth, to identify the best measurements. This is an observational study, not a treatment, so it aims to improve how we detect preterm birth risk.
