This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only This study
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early

Summary

This trial is testing an investigational imaging device that uses shortwave infrared light to help surgeons see important structures like nerves, ureters, and bile ducts during surgery. The study involves adults aged 18 and older who are undergoing certain surgical procedures, such as gallbladder or thyroid surgery. Surgeons will use the device for up to 10 minutes per case to see if it can safely and effectively improve visualization without disrupting the standard of care. The goal is to gather preliminary data to support future research.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
SWIR surgical imaging device
What this could lead to
If successful, this imaging tool could help surgeons better identify critical structures during operations, potentially reducing the risk of accidental damage.
What could go wrong
This is an early, observational study with a small number of participants. The device may not perform as well in humans as it did in animal and cadaver tests, and it is not intended to change standard care.
