New ultrasound may spare kids from radiation after belly injuries
NCT ID NCT03490929
First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study tests if a special ultrasound (contrast-enhanced) can detect organ injuries in children with blunt belly trauma as accurately as a CT scan, but without radiation and at the bedside. About 146 stable children who already need a CT will get this ultrasound to compare results. If it works, it could reduce radiation exposure and make imaging easier for kids.
