Computer-Guided surgery may sharpen tumor removal for jaw cancer patients

NCT ID NCT07306962

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a computer-assisted method called virtual lesion segmentation can help surgeons remove mandibular ameloblastoma more precisely. Ten patients with this rare jaw tumor will have their surgery planned using 3D imaging to set a 10-mm safety margin. The goal is to see if this technique leads to negative margins and fewer recurrences.

Active substance

Virtual lesion segmentation device

What this could lead to

If successful, this approach could help surgeons more accurately remove ameloblastoma tumors, potentially lowering the chance of the tumor coming back.

What could go wrong

This is a very small, early study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The technique is still experimental and needs more testing.
