MRI could make radiation therapy safer for women with cancer

NCT ID NCT02993900

Summary

This study is testing whether using MRI scans instead of CT scans to guide radiation therapy for gynecologic cancers can reduce side effects and improve treatment accuracy. Researchers at Johns Hopkins will compare how well MRI helps doctors target tumors while sparing healthy organs like the bladder and rectum. The study involves 54 participants with cervical, uterine, vaginal, vulvar, or bladder cancer who are eligible for internal radiation therapy.
