Establishment and Evaluation of Standardized Clinical, Biological and Imaging Parameters to Assess the Response of LDRT in Heel Spur With Plantar Fasciitis

NCT06969820 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 35

Last updated 2026-03-30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The clinical picture of calcaneal spur with plantar fasciitis is a debilitating disease that is difficult to treat with conservative and interventional measures. Radiotherapy has shown very good therapeutic results in retrospective data, which need to be clinically confirmed both subjectively and in terms of image morphology in a prospective approach.

Primary objective of the study:

To demonstrate a clinical benefit of LDRT: improvement of pain, functionality and quality of life after LDRT

Conditions

  • Calcaneal Spur

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Low-dose Radiation Therapy (LDRT) using MRI-based imaging techniques

LDRT using MRI-based imaging techniques by developing an MRI imaging protocol, deep learning-based image enhancement and resolution increase.
