New eye on muscle disease: could a quick scan replace weeks of waiting?
NCT ID NCT07552220
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new imaging technique called full-field OCT to see if it can spot muscle inflammation faster than the usual method, which takes weeks. Researchers will compare both methods on muscle samples from 20 healthy adults and people with suspected myositis. The goal is to see if OCT can give doctors a quicker, clearer picture to help diagnose muscle diseases earlier.
