A Pilot Study Using Laser Speckle Imaging of Neonate Cerebral Vasculature

Withdrawn
Conditions
Newborn Distress
Interventions
Device: Laser Speckle Imaging
Registration Number
NCT01166880
Lead Sponsor
University of California, Irvine
Brief Summary

The researcher want to know whether reflections of light can be used to provide real-time pictures of blood vessel formation around infants' heads. This approach is called laser speckle imaging

Detailed Description

This study involves imaging of superficial blood vessels in the infant's head. Analysis of reflected light images provides the type of data necessary to see the blood vessels.

The researcher want to assess only feasibility of our instrument. If we determine that our instrument has sufficient spatial resolution to image directly large vessels, then we will proceed with plans for a larger study with statistical power.
