What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests a 3D body scanner called NSite to see if it can reliably monitor scoliosis in teenagers. Thirteen teens with scoliosis will be scanned by three different users to check if the results are consistent. If it works, this device could offer a radiation-free way to track spine curves, reducing the need for repeated X-rays.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
NSite 3D scanning device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a radiation-free way to monitor scoliosis progression in teens, reducing the need for frequent X-rays.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study with only 13 participants. The device may not be accurate enough to replace X-rays, and results may not apply to all patients.
