Compare a new CT scanner for image-guided procedures
This study compares a new type of imaging machine (a special CT scanner) with the standard imaging used during image-guided procedures, to see if it gives clearer images and works just as well for guiding treatments. If you're already scheduled for such a procedure, you may be able to take part.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You are scheduled to receive an image-guided procedure (a procedure that uses imaging to guide treatment) of your head or body.
- You have had a CT scan before your procedure that can be reviewed for the study.
- You are able to understand and sign a consent form yourself.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing a new CT imaging technique called CT-XPI to see if it can provide better images for diagnosis. You may be able to join if you are scheduled for a standard CT scan of the head, neck, chest, belly, pelvis, or an arm or leg.
This study tests an imaging software that helps make CT images clearer and sharper, especially when guiding needles or other instruments during procedures. If you have already had a qualifying CT scan, this study may help improve how procedures are guided in the future.
This study is testing a new, more advanced type of CT scanner. It uses photon-counting technology to take clearer pictures of the body with less radiation. You will have one or more CT scans to help researchers see how well this new machine works compared to current scanners.
This study compares two types of PET/CT machines to see how well they work for imaging. It may help if you are getting a PET/CT scan as part of your care.
This study is testing a new way of taking CT scans that may give doctors more information. If you are already scheduled for a CT scan, you may be able to have an extra scan using this new method.
This study tests whether a “next generation” computer method can improve how CT scan images are created. You may be eligible if you need a CT scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis (and/or the chest) as part of your care.
