Prediction Model of Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions Based on R-EBUS Image
China1,300 participantsStarted 2018-07-01
Plain-language summary
Peripheral pulmonary lesions(PPLs) have a wide spectrum of diseases, and the diagnosis will affect the treatment strategy and prognosis. Radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS) can be used for non-invasive diagnosis of PPLs, and the supplement pathological diagnosis results of EBUS-TBLB, which has important clinical application value. This project intends to select representative images from R-EBUS dynamic videos for qualitative and quantitative analysis, to establish and verify the diagnostic evaluation system of R-EBUS forPPLs. Then build 1,000 R-EBUS image databases of PPLs, train deep learning networks for automatic extraction and diagnosis of target areas, and automatically extract representative images from videos to establish a benign and malignant prediction model of PPLs. We will provide reliable theoretical basis for the diagnosis of PPLs, and optimize the diagnosis and treatment method.The network would be prospectively verified through 300 R-EBUS images from multi centers.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
