Comparing two endometrial biopsy tools for women
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares two different devices used to collect tissue samples from the uterus (endometrial biopsy). Doctors use these samples to check for cancer or other problems when women have abnormal bleeding or other concerning symptoms. The trial will help determine which device works better and causes less discomfort.

This trial compares two methods (Pipelle and Manual Vacuum Aspiration) for taking a small sample of the lining of the uterus (endometrial biopsy) in women with abnormal uterine bleeding. The goal is to see which method is more comfortable and effective.
This trial tests two ways to take a small sample of the uterus lining (endometrium) when it is thin. The results may help women have a more comfortable and effective biopsy.
This study looks at how well a surgical tool is used during standard surgery for early endometrial cancer, and whether it relates to test results from fluid taken in the abdomen. It may help surgeons improve how samples are collected and interpreted during routine care.
This trial tests a new way to take a small sample of the womb lining (biopsy) using a thin, flexible tube guided by ultrasound. The goal is to see if ultrasound guidance makes the biopsy more accurate and comfortable in people with post-menopausal bleeding.
This trial tests a new type of vaginal speculum designed to make endometrial biopsies (a procedure to take a small sample of the lining of the uterus) more comfortable and effective. If you have had this biopsy before at the Minnesota Oncology Clinic, you may be eligible to help evaluate this new tool.
This study looks at how often endometrial biopsy samples are successfully collected in an outpatient setting. If you are scheduled for this procedure, the results may help improve how it's done.
