Summary

This trial uses a mobile 3D scanning application to measure the head and neck region in patients with head and neck lymphedema.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with clear thinking who can make informed decisions, have minimal or no facial hair, and suffer from swelling due to lymph fluid buildup in the head and neck area. People with health issues that could affect the study or a history of not following medical advice are not eligible.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new mobile app that uses 3D scanning to measure swelling in patients with head and neck lymphedema. This tool aims to improve how doctors diagnose lymphedema, track treatment responses, and monitor disease progression.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves an imaging technique rather than medication, traditional side effects like those seen with drugs are not expected. However, there may be unforeseen risks associated with using the mobile application.
