Tracking Devices to Find Abnormalities During Medical Procedures
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests technology that uses imaging scans to help doctors locate and reach abnormalities during surgical or interventional procedures. The goal is to make these image-guided procedures more accurate and safer for patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses special prostate MRI scans to see how prostate cancer changes over time while you stay on active surveillance. It also looks at prostate tissue to understand your cancer’s genetics, which may help guide future decisions.
This trial tests whether a precisely targeted laser procedure—guided by MRI images—can treat prostate cancer. It may help some men who have a certain type and location of tumor while aiming to avoid nearby sensitive structures.
This trial enrolls adults who are being evaluated or treated for possible or confirmed prostate cancer and allows researchers to collect prostate tissue. It may help improve understanding of prostate cancer over the course of diagnosis and standard care.
This study uses a special kind of MRI to better “map” prostate cancer inside the prostate. Researchers compare the MRI results with the detailed tissue exam after prostate surgery to see how accurate the imaging is.
This trial uses advanced MRI scans and detailed tissue analysis to better detect prostate cancer. It is for people with confirmed prostate cancer who are already scheduled for prostate removal surgery.
This study checks whether a faster prostate MRI and image-matching (image-fusion) can better find suspicious spots so doctors can target a biopsy. If you have concerning prostate exam results or PSA blood test results, you may get an MRI and, if something looks suspicious, a biopsy using MRI images.
