Using tongue imaging to screen for stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study uses a special tongue camera to see if the tongue can help doctors find stomach cancer early. It is looking for both people with newly diagnosed stomach cancer and healthy volunteers to compare tongue images.

This study is looking for people with stomach discomfort who are coming to this hospital for an endoscopy. Researchers will use the test results to help catch stomach cancer early and keep an eye on it after surgery.
This study looks for metabolic markers in your blood and tumor tissue to help find stomach cancer early, predict your prognosis, and watch for recurrence. If you qualify, you would give blood and tumor samples for testing.
This study looks for a blood “signature” that can spot early, risky stomach changes (before cancer) and stomach cancer. It may help clinicians diagnose earlier and decide who needs closer follow-up.
This study looks for marker signals from stomach cancer tissue to improve a detection kit. You may be asked to provide tissue samples, especially if you have a new stomach cancer diagnosis and have not had anti-cancer treatment yet.
This study uses a simple blood test to look for signs of stomach (gastric) cancer early. It may help detect cancer before symptoms appear, potentially improving treatment success.
