Utility of Perfusion MRI to Detect Radiation Necrosis in Patients With Brain Metastases

NCT03680144 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 8

Summary

This trial studies how well dynamic susceptibility contrast-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) works in determining radiation necrosis and tumor progression in participants with cancer that has spread to the brain and are being treated with radiation therapy. Diagnostic procedures, such as dynamic susceptibility contrast-MRI, may improve the ability to determine indeterminate post-treatment changes seen on imaging after radiation therapy.
