AI-Powered bladder check speeds up pelvic ultrasound for teens
NCT ID NCT07535294
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a handheld ultrasound device with artificial intelligence could quickly measure bladder fullness in young women with belly or pelvic pain. The goal was to see if this approach helps doctors know when the bladder is full enough for a pelvic ultrasound, potentially making the process faster. The study involved 520 females aged 8 to 21 in the emergency department.
