Can 3D image fusion make angioplasty safer by cutting radiation?
NCT ID NCT05353309
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial investigates whether using 3D image fusion during iliac angioplasty reduces the amount of radiation patients receive compared to standard practice. The study involves 37 adults with iliac artery narrowing who need angioplasty. Researchers will measure radiation exposure in both groups to see if the newer imaging technique is safer.
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 image fusion reduces radiation, it could make angioplasty safer for patients and staff.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study focused on radiation measurement, not clinical outcomes. The technique may not reduce radiation significantly or may have other drawbacks.
