AR/VR for ultrasound-guided procedures
This study tests whether using augmented reality or virtual reality (AR/VR) can help doctors perform ultrasound-guided procedures more accurately. If you are an adult having an ultrasound-guided procedure and are in generally good health, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for a procedure that uses ultrasound guidance (like a biopsy or injection)
- You are in good to fair health (ASA physical status I, II, or III)
- You are not pregnant
- You are not currently incarcerated
- Your BMI (body mass index) is 35 or lower

This study tests if augmented reality (a type of computer overlay) can help doctors perform MRI-guided needle procedures more accurately in children and young adults. It may lead to safer and more precise treatments.
This trial tests whether a new augmented reality system helps doctors perform a less invasive heart valve replacement. The system overlays images onto the patient to guide the procedure, which may improve precision and safety.
This study tests a virtual reality headset (HypnoVR) that uses hypnosis and calming visuals to help reduce anxiety and pain during interventional radiology procedures done without sedation. It may help you feel more relaxed and comfortable during your procedure.
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) and music during gynecological surgery can help reduce anxiety or pain. You may be eligible if you are an adult undergoing gynecological surgery under general anesthesia and are in good enough health to participate.
This study tests whether using a virtual reality headset can help reduce pain during ultrasound-guided needle procedures in pregnancy. It may offer a drug-free way to feel more comfortable during the procedure.
This study tests a new software that helps doctors see exactly where to place your new heart valve during a TAVR procedure. The software uses augmented reality to guide the doctor, which may make the procedure safer and more precise.
