Using optical scans to help diagnose skin cancer in patients.

Phase N/A

This study is about using a special scan called qOBM to help diagnose skin cancer. The scan uses red light and doesn't hurt or cut the skin. It might help doctors see skin problems better than not using any scans. The study's main goal is to check if this scan works well on people for the first time. The study will look at different kinds of skin problems, like cancerous (e.g., melanoma) and non-cancerous (e.g., keloids) lesions. The process involves two groups: one for people with melanoma or suspected lesions and one for people with confirmed skin cancer undergoing regular treatment. The study includes multiple scans and might span up to a year.

Key Points:

  • The study requires multiple visits for scans, potentially lasting up to 12 months.
  • The procedure is non-invasive, meaning there's no cutting or pain involved.
  • Eligible participants must be at least 18 years old with skin lesions.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
