An observational study in Ganglion Cyst of Both Hands, sponsored by Waldfriede Hospital. Status unknown at 1 site in Germany. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-01-26.
Sponsored by Waldfriede Hospital · Observational
The aim of this study is to investigate if inexpensive, readily available and portable wireless ultrasound devices can detect ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand in compare to a cart-based ultrasound device before surgery.
Ninety male and female patients with ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand planned for surgery will be recruited at the hand surgery outpatient clinic of the Waldfriede Hospital Berlin. Patients will be diagnosed with ganglion cyst of the hand/wrist by an experienced hand surgeon using clinical and MRI data.
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients with suspected ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand receive portable wireless ultrasound imaging AND cart-based ultrasound imaging before surgery.
Device: Portable wireless ultrasonography devices · Device: Cart-based ultrasonography device
Patients with suspected ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand receive portable wireless ultrasound imaging
Patients with suspected ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand receive conventional cart-based ultrasound imaging
Size and location of ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand
Assessment of size in cm and location of the ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand by pre-surgery wireless ultrasound in compare to pre-surgery cart-based ultrasound
Time frame: Baseline (pre-surgery)
MRI measure of size and location of ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand
Assessment of size in cm and location of the ganglion cyst of the wrist or hand by pre-surgery MRI in compare to pre-surgery ultrasonography
Time frame: Baseline (pre-surgery)
