Doctors test glowing dye in diapers to spot deadly infant liver disease

NCT ID NCT07250854

Summary

This study is testing a new way to help diagnose biliary atresia, a serious liver disease in newborns. Doctors give babies a safe, fluorescent dye and then check their diapers with a special camera to see if bile is flowing normally. The goal is to see if this simple test can accurately tell which babies have this condition and need urgent surgery.
