About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare X-ray images obtained using the GM85 digital radiography machine at the standard full dose to X-ray images obtained using the GM85 digital radiography machine along with the Samsung S-Vue system, which is a image post-processing engine that allows images to be obtained using a lower dose. The study also aims to determine the lowest dose of radiation that can be used to get a good, readable x-ray of the chest in pediatric patients using Samsung S-Vue system.

Being tested
Full Dose Chest X-Ray, Low Dose Chest X-Ray

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Full Dose Chest X-RayDiagnostic test

    Also called GM85

    Full dose X ray at Day 1

  • Low Dose Chest X-RayDiagnostic test

    Also called GM85

    Low dose X ray within 3 months from full dose

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Full dose Chest X-RaySubjects will receive a full (standard) dose chest X-ray at Day 1.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Full Dose Chest X-Ray
Low dose Chest X-RaySubjects will receive a follow up X-ray at at a lower dose within 3 months after the first dose.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Low Dose Chest X-Ray

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Image Quality as assessed by the Bureau of Radiological Health (BRH) method based scoring system-Anatomic landmark

    The BRH anatomic landmark score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better quality.

    Measured: baseline

  2. Image Quality as assessed by the Bureau of Radiological Health (BRH) method based scoring system-Anatomic landmark

    The BRH anatomic landmark score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better quality.

    Measured: within 3 months

  3. Image Quality as assessed by the Bureau of Radiological Health (BRH) method based scoring system-Physical parameters

    The BRH physical parameters score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better quality.

    Measured: baseline

  4. Image Quality as assessed by the Bureau of Radiological Health (BRH) method based scoring system-Physical parameters

    The BRH physical parameters score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better quality.

    Measured: within 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chest X-ray for Clinical Evaluation, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2020. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Image Quality as assessed by the Bureau of Radiological Health (BRH) method based scoring system-Anatomic landmark (time frame: baseline). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2020.
