Chris Thom, MD, RDMS — Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of Virginia School of Medicine — discusses the pivotal role of clinical trials in advancing medical care.

Clinical trials, even at the feasibility stage, lay the groundwork for breakthroughs that reshape patient care. These trials provide the critical insights needed to improve outcomes, integrate innovations into complex hospital ecosystems, and deliver tangible benefits to patients.

Our feasibility trials are part of a legacy of medical progress. By building incrementally and refining processes, we’re ensuring ultrasound technology can be a reliable, accessible tool in emergency departments, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
