About this study

The aim of this study is to understand the diagnostic applications for this imaging technology and identify particular disorders to target for future clinical investigations. Images obtained with the Ossiview device will be correlated to other standard of care (SoC) testing including microscopic otoscopy, CT scans, MRIs, audiologic testing results, and surgical and pathology reports.

Read the detailed description

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an optical imaging technique that uses a low-coherence interferometer to produce depth-resolved scans in tissue. This study will explore the utility of this technology in otology patients presenting with various pathologies as well as normal subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Middle Ear Disease, run by University of Arkansas 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 3 inclusion and 2 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Sep 2024. 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Diagnostic correlation with microscopic otoscopy (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 6 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 3 Sep 2024.
