AI and safety in gallbladder removal surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial studies whether using artificial intelligence (AI) during keyhole gallbladder surgery can make the procedure safer. If you are scheduled for this surgery at University Health Network, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You are scheduled to have your gallbladder removed with keyhole surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
- Your surgery is being done at University Health Network in Toronto.
- Your surgeon is an attending surgeon (fully trained) or a fellow at that hospital.

This trial uses artificial intelligence to analyze surgery videos and help surgeons identify important structures during gallbladder removal. It may lead to safer procedures.
This trial is testing a computer program that can automatically analyze medical images like CT scans from people who have had laparoscopic liver, gallbladder, or pancreas surgery. The goal is to see if the AI can help doctors better plan and perform these surgeries.
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) model can accurately evaluate the surgical technique of heart surgeons performing a common bypass procedure. If you are a first-time bypass patient and do not have certain heart or organ conditions, you may be able to participate and help improve surgical training tools.
This study uses a special artificial intelligence (AI) program to help doctors spot stomach cancer during an upper endoscopy (a camera test of the stomach). It is for people 60 and older who are already scheduled for this test because they have a higher risk of stomach cancer.
This trial tests whether an artificial intelligence system can help detect liver cancer recurrence earlier after curative treatment, allowing for potentially curative salvage therapy. Participants who have undergone complete surgical removal or ablation of their first liver cancer will be monitored with AI-assisted imaging.
This trial is comparing two types of keyhole surgery for removing the gallbladder: one done with a robot and the other with standard laparoscopic tools. The goal is to find out which technique leads to a better recovery and fewer complications for people with non-cancerous gallbladder problems like gallstones or polyps.
