Diffusion-Weighted MRI for Liver Metastasis

NCT02781935 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 233

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The DREAM study will assess the diagnostic accuracy of diffusion-weighted MRI in combination with other imaging modalities (multiparametric MRI and CT Scan) in determining the true status of disappearing liver metastasis (DLM) detected after conversion systemic therapy for unresectable or borderline resectable colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM).

Conditions

  • Colorectal Cancer
  • Colon Cancer Liver Metastasis
  • Malignant Neoplasm of Rectum Metastatic to Liver

Interventions

PROCEDURE

DW-MRI

DW-MRI combined with Contrast Enhanced MRI will be used to confirm the status of disappearing liver metastasis prior to surgery and will be compared to findings from either histopathology of resected lesions (Rubbia-Brandt Classification of Tumor regression grading) or follow-up imaging of lesions left behind (either CT scan or MRI) after surgery. MRI will be used during the follow-up period to confirm recurrences from a previous site of DLM.
