Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The objective of this research is to perform a pilot study on patients undergoing laryngoscopy for diagnostic and tumor staging purposes (for pharyngeal or laryngeal cancer) in which intraoperative CT imaging will be performed both prior to (but after induction of general endotracheal anesthesia) and during placement of the laryngoscope in order to better understand anatomic changes that occur during instrumentation of the oral cavity and oropharynx. The goals of the study are: 1. Develop a suite of de-identified images and surface renderings that qualitatively show how a tumor and the upper aerodigestive tract anatomy deform during a laryngoscopic evaluation. 2. Create deformation models of the upper aerodigestive tract. This data to be used for future retractor development as well as for virtual image guided surgery.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

United States
  • Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Norris Cotton Cancer Center

    Lebanon, New Hampshire, United States

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.
