Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This research project designed to diagnose sinusitis using a simple and low-cost optical tool. Healthy sinuses are typically filled with air, and show up as bright spots on the camera. Infected sinuses are filled with fluid and show up dark spots on the camera. Images of infected sinuses could be used to diagnose sinusitis, or to check if surgical treatments on the sinuses have been successful.
