Thermal camera study for blood flow in PAD with tissue loss
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special camera that detects heat to see blood flow in your leg before and after a procedure to open blocked arteries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have lower extremity peripheral artery disease with tissue loss (like a non-healing sore or gangrene on your leg or foot).
- You are scheduled for a procedure to open up the blocked arteries in your leg (angioplasty, stenting, etc.).
- Your ulcers are caused by poor blood flow (arterial), not from other causes like vein problems.
- You are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a special camera (SnapshotNIR) that takes pictures of blood flow in your legs while you move them into different positions. It may help doctors better understand your circulation and diagnose peripheral artery disease (PAD) without needles or dye.
This study looks at how blood flows in the legs of people with peripheral artery disease (narrowed leg arteries) compared to healthy people. It uses CT scans to create 3D models, which may help doctors understand the disease better and could lead to better treatments.
This study uses ultrasound to measure blood flow in the legs of people with PAD symptoms and healthy volunteers. It aims to improve how doctors assess peripheral arterial disease without invasive tests.
This study looks at how well blood flows through leg arteries after using a balloon to open blockages. It uses special measurements to check if the treatment fully restores blood flow, which may help guide future treatments.
This study tests a special catheter to open blocked arteries in the thigh, knee, or lower leg. It may help improve blood flow and reduce symptoms like leg pain or wounds.
This trial uses a special CT scan (coronary CTA with HeartFlow analysis) to look for hidden blockages in the heart arteries of people who recently had a leg artery procedure. It may help detect heart problems early so they can be treated.
