Evaluate the Use of Optical Frequency Domain Imaging (OFDI) for Celiac Disease in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults

April 1, 2019 updated by: Guillermo Tearney, Massachusetts General Hospital

Pilot Study to Evaluate Use of Optical Frequency Domain Imaging (OFDI) for Duodenal Imaging in Celiac Disease in Children, Adolescents and Young Adults

The goal of this research is to conduct a pilot clinical study to image Celiac disease characteristic mucosal lesions and compare Optical Frequency Domain Imaging (OFDI) images to histologic evaluation in children, adolescents and young adults with suspected Celiac disease.

Detailed Description

The Optical Frequency Domain Imaging(OFDI) catheter will be used in conjunction with a standard pediatric endoscope. The endoscopist will introduce the OFDI imaging catheter through the biopsy channel of the endoscope already in place. The catheter will be passed into the view of the endoscope so that the tip of the catheter can be directly visualized throughout the procedure. The catheter will be placed adjacent to the bowel wall in the vicinity of the target locations. Once the OFDI probe is in place, OFDI imaging will start and data will be continuously collected during helical pullback scanning of the inner catheter drive shaft over a predetermined length of approximately 3 cm.

It is expected that the total experimental procedure including the insertion of the OFDI catheter, OFDI imaging, and removal of the catheter will add approximately 10 minutes to the total length of the procedure.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Changes of Villous Architecture Undergoing OFDI Imaging
Time Frame: during imaging session

OFDI images analyzed and compared to standard of care biopsies to identify celiac disease caracteristic mucosal lesions.

In this pilot study, we demonstrated the feasibility of using OFDI for visualizing changes of villous architecture in CD patients in vivo
