Computer Vision-Based Recognition of Parathyroid Glands and Recurrent Laryngeal Nerves in Endoscopic Surgery
China100 participantsStarted 2026-06-01
Plain-language summary
This study aims to evaluate the performance of the PTAIR computer vision model for recognizing parathyroid glands and recurrent laryngeal nerves during endoscopic thyroid surgery. Multicenter intraoperative endoscopic surgery videos will be prospectively collected. Using the video recorder timeline as the unified time reference, the first recognition time of parathyroid glands and recurrent laryngeal nerves by PTAIR, junior physicians, and senior physicians will be recorded during surgery. The continuous recognition time of parathyroid glands and recurrent laryngeal nerves by PTAIR will also be recorded.
This study focuses on the recognition performance of PTAIR in real-world multicenter endoscopic thyroid surgery settings. At this stage, PTAIR will not be used to guide intraoperative surgical decision-making, and the study will not evaluate the effect of PTAIR on clinical outcomes. The collected video data will be used to assess the performance of PTAIR under different centers, surgeons, equipment conditions, and surgical field conditions, and may provide data support for future model optimization.

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?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
