GPS and glowing dye aim to make liver cancer biopsies more accurate
NCT ID NCT04258566
Summary
This study tested whether combining two technologies could help doctors get better samples during liver biopsies for suspected cancer. Participants received a fluorescent dye and had their biopsy guided by a medical 'GPS' tracking system. The goal was to see if this combination could more accurately target suspicious areas in the liver to improve diagnosis.
