About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the 2D and 3D imaging performance of the CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner ("investigational device") against the commercially available 2D and 3D predicate devices. The results of this study will be included in a Traditional 510(k) FDA Submission to obtain clearance to market the new CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner in the US. The study was designed in accordance with the FDA Guidance titled "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices", issued on August 6, 1999.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the 2D and 3D imaging performance of the CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner ("investigational device") against the commercially available 2D and 3D predicate devices. The study undertaken will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 2D imaging functionality by comparing against the predicate CARESTREAM DRX-1 GOS detector used on adult cadaver specimens to capture the image pairs.

The study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D imaging functionality by comparing against the reference PHILLIPS Multi Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) scanner used on adult cadaver specimens (body part) to capture 3D volumetric exams using the anatomy of both upper and lower extremity specimens. The adult cadaver specimens will receive multiple x-ray exposures using the predicate devices for both 2D and 3D imaging. Target images from cadaver specimens will be reviewed by radiologist readers to rate diagnostic image quality, and the data will be included in a comparative evaluation.

The live human subject portion of the study will be performed on healthy volunteers. Each volunteer will sign an Informed Consent after which will receive only one 3D volumetric exam using the investigational CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner. Target images will be reviewed by radiologist readers to rate diagnostic image quality according to a radiologist reader scale applicable to 3D volumetric imaging.

What participants receive

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

  • RadiationRadiation

    Cadaveric specimens will be imaged with 2D devices: CARESTREAM DRX-Evolution general radiograph and CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) general radiograph, and 3D devices PHILLIPS Multi Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) and CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). Human subjects will be imaged with CARESTREAM Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D only.

What is being measured

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

  1. Radlex Scale for Diagnostic Quality Ratings - 2D Images

    1-1.9-Non-diagnostic Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. Little or no clinically usable diagnostic information (e.g., gross underexposure, system failure or extensive motion artifact). Almost all such imaging should be repeated. 2-2.9-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect (motion artifact, body habitus/poor x-ray penetration, or patient positioning may limit visualization of some body-regions but still adequate for diagnostic purposes). Not as much diagnostic information as is typical for an examination of this type, but likely sufficient. 3-3.9-Diagnostic Image quality that would be expected routinely when imaging cooperative patients. 4-Exemplary Good, most adequate for diagnostic purposes. Image quality that can serve as an example that should be emulated.

    Measured: 12 weeks after last image capture

  2. Radlex Scale for Diagnostic Quality Ratings - 3D Images High Resolution

    1-1.9-Non-diagnostic Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. Little or no clinically usable diagnostic information (e.g., gross underexposure, system failure or extensive motion artifact). Almost all such imaging should be repeated. 2-2.9-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect (motion artifact, body habitus/poor x-ray penetration, or patient positioning may limit visualization of some body-regions but still adequate for diagnostic purposes). Not as much diagnostic information as is typical for an examination of this type, but likely sufficient. 3-3.9-Diagnostic Image quality that would be expected routinely when imaging cooperative patients. 4-Exemplary Good, most adequate for diagnostic purposes. Image quality that can serve as an example that should be emulated.

    Measured: 12 weeks after last image capture

  3. Radlex Scale for Diagnostic Quality Ratings - 3D Images FDK

    1-1.9-Non-diagnostic Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. Little or no clinically usable diagnostic information (e.g., gross underexposure, system failure or extensive motion artifact). Almost all such imaging should be repeated. 2-2.9-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect (motion artifact, body habitus/poor x-ray penetration, or patient positioning may limit visualization of some body-regions but still adequate for diagnostic purposes). Not as much diagnostic information as is typical for an examination of this type, but likely sufficient. 3-3.9-Diagnostic Image quality that would be expected routinely when imaging cooperative patients. 4-Exemplary Good, most adequate for diagnostic purposes. Image quality that can serve as an example that should be emulated.

  4. Radlex Scale for Diagnostic Quality Ratings - 3D Images SND

    1-1.9-Non-diagnostic Unacceptable for diagnostic purposes. Little or no clinically usable diagnostic information (e.g., gross underexposure, system failure or extensive motion artifact). Almost all such imaging should be repeated. 2-2.9-Limited Acceptable, with some technical defect (motion artifact, body habitus/poor x-ray penetration, or patient positioning may limit visualization of some body-regions but still adequate for diagnostic purposes).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Radiation in people with Healthy, run by Carestream Health, Inc..

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 30 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Jan 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Radlex Scale for Diagnostic Quality Ratings - 2D Images (time frame: 12 weeks after last image capture). 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 30 Jan 2017.
