First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study planned to test a technique called radiofrequency track cautery during liver, kidney, or spleen biopsies in patients at high risk for bleeding. The idea was to use a small heated probe to seal the biopsy track and reduce bleeding. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
