About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a New CZT System for Imaging in Routine Nuclear Medicine Examination

The purpose of the study is to check if the new CZT system has an advantage in detection of small osseous processes, thyroid adenomas, parathyroid adenomas and detection of sentinel node, in comparison with the techniques in use.

Participants: 100 subjects male and female that come to the institute of nuclear medicine for routine screening examinations.

The CZT screening takes 10 minutes and does not require any extra intervention to the routine screening.

Keywords

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Einat Even Sapir, PhD,MD (972-3-6974444 ext. 3536, evensap@tasmc.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01084356, which also lists 7 linked publications.
