RECRUITING

Pilot Study for TCE Imaging of the Esophagus Using an OFDI Capsule With a Compact Imaging System

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this research is to test a distal scanning capsule and a compact redesigned version of the OFDI imaging system in healthy and BE participants to assess ease of use, safety and feasibility in preparation for its use in a multicenter clinical trial.
