AI camera tool to examine bile duct narrowings during ERCP
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests an artificial-intelligence computer add-on (an AI “camera guide”) used during a procedure that looks inside the bile ducts. If you have a bile duct narrowing, it may help the doctor more quickly and accurately identify the cause while you undergo the usual procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You need to be scheduled for an ERCP procedure that includes looking inside the bile ducts (cholangioscopy).
- Your doctor must think you may be able to have the study’s AI camera tool used during that procedure.
- If you are pregnant, you can still be included if the team confirms the AI tool doesn’t add risk to you or the fetus.
- If you don’t speak English, you can still join with help from an interpreter during consent and during discussion of the AI tool.

This study tests a new digital scope and ultrasound to look at narrowed bile ducts that don't cause jaundice. It may help doctors see the narrowing more clearly and guide treatment.
This study compares two different devices used during a procedure called ERCP to look at and take samples from a narrowed bile duct. The goal is to see which one is better at helping doctors diagnose the cause of the narrowing.
This study tests whether an AI tool can help doctors find the right spot to place a tube during ERCP. It may help make the procedure quicker and safer for you.
This study is developing a computer tool that helps doctors see bile duct blockages more clearly during a procedure called ERCP. It uses your existing MRI and CT scans to train the tool, which may make future procedures safer and more effective.
This trial tests a software that helps doctors see bile duct images during a procedure called ERCP, which treats blockages or stones. It may help make the procedure more precise and improve outcomes.
This study looks at a new way to detect bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) using samples taken during a routine ERCP. It tests a special protein marker that might help doctors diagnose the condition more accurately.
