Summary
This study tests Cellvizio, a device that provides real-time, high-resolution views of tissues during gynecological surgery. Researchers want to see if it can help diagnose lesions and check surgical margins more accurately. The study will enroll 80 women undergoing laparoscopic surgery for conditions like endometriosis or cancer. Results will be compared with standard pathology reports.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Cellvizio optical biopsy device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could make diagnosis during gynecological surgery faster and more accurate, reducing the need for traditional biopsies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The technology may not match standard pathology in accuracy.
