Brief Title: Low-cost Imaging Technology for Global Prevention of Cervical Cancer
Official Title: Low-cost Mobile Colposcopy and Confocal Imaging for Global Prevention of Cervical Cancer
Study ID: NCT05078528
Brief Summary: Cervical cancer remains the first or second leading cause of cancer death among women in many low-and middle-income countries. Cervical cancer prevention programs in low-resource settings are hampered by a lack of personnel with appropriate clinical expertise, lack of pathology services, and lack of associated infrastructure. There is an urgent need for appropriate diagnostic tools to enable accurate screening and diagnosis in low-resource settings. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a low-cost Multimodal Mobile Colposcope (MMC) for global cervical cancer prevention programs. This new device will combine the imaging capabilities of a mobile colposcope with the microscopic imaging capabilities of a fiber-optic confocal imaging probe.
