New CT software aims to sharpen images during needle procedures
NCT ID NCT07317427
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 26, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a new image-reconstruction method called Precise Image on CT scans taken during medical procedures like needle or probe placement. Researchers want to see if it gives doctors clearer pictures than the current standard. About 55 adults will have their existing CT scans analyzed to compare image quality.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Subjects scanned by FDA-cleared and marketed Philips Incisive CT or CT 5300 systems, and according to the department standard of care clinical protocols for the applicable clinical scans. * Subject age: \>18 years old. * Presence of procedural instrument(s) (e.g., needle, probe, screw) in the CT images. Exclusion Criteria: * Subject age: 18 years old and below. * Absence of procedural instrument(s) (e.g., needle, probe, screw) in the CT images. * Scans that were acquired using a kilovoltage peak of 70 kVp (as Precise Image does not support a kilovoltage peak lower than 80 kVp). * Scans that the site interventional radiologists have deemed non-suitable for procedural guidance. * Scans that the site interventional radiologists have deemed non-suitable for procedural guidance.
