KNOW HOW TO POSITION THE SACCULE AND UTRICULE IN SCANNING

An observational study of Otosclerosis, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

Titanium pistons cause MRI artifacts that prevent interpretation of the vestibule. This disadvantage is not present on CT but the vestibule is not visible. Hence the interest in creating a model with 6 reference cuts in order to position the utricle and the saccule in the vestibule in CT. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: KNOW HOW TO POSITION THE SACCULE AND UTRICULE IN SCANNING: INTEREST IN INTRAVESTIBULAR DISLOCATIONS OF PISTONS OR CALIPER

Titanium pistons cause MRI artifacts that prevent interpretation of the vestibule. This disadvantage is not present on CT but the vestibule is not visible. Hence the interest in creating a model with 6 reference cuts in order to position the utricle and the saccule in the vestibule in CT. Furthermore, the scanner has fewer contraindications, greater availability and a shorter examination time than MRI.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the study is to analyze six normal sections chosen as reference in histology, high resolution T2 MRI and CT in order to compare them with precise topographical landmarks to position the posterior membranous labyrinth in CT. Then, apply the investigators' observations to cases of operated otosclerosis.

Conditions
Otosclerosis
Keywords
Otosclerosis, Vestibular dysfunction, Membranous Labyrinth
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence or absence of the anatomical structure referenced in the investigators' reading grid on each of the 6 predefined MRI or CT sections

    Measured: up to 10 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Otosclerosis, run by University Hospital, Strasbourg, France at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Dec 2023. 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 France. 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 francis VEILLON, MD, PhD (33 3 88 12 78 65, francis.veillon@chru-strasbourg.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Presence or absence of the anatomical structure referenced in the investigators' reading grid on each of the 6 predefined MRI or CT sections (time frame: up to 10 month). 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 21 Dec 2023.
