Diagnostic Value of Novel MR Imaging Techniques for the Primary Staging and Restaging of Rectal Cancer

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinical Trial

Official title:
Diagnostic Value of Novel MR Imaging Techniques for the Primary Staging and Restaging of Rectal Cancer

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical value of the novel MRI-techniques DWI and gadofosveset-enhanced MRI for the management of rectal cancer patients.

Clinical Trial Description

Rectal cancer is a common form of cancer, and the treatment stratification depends on tumour and nodal stage as determined on MRI. Unfortunately, the information provided by standard T2-weighted MRI is not sufficient to accurately assess nodal involvement and tumour response after neo-adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Additional functional information is required for reliable (re)staging. Diffusion-weighted imaging and gadofosveset-enhanced MRI are two new imaging techniques that have all shown great potential in rectal cancer staging. In order to provide definite evidence there is a need for a multicenter study with a large patient population. ;
