First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study looked at whether a special type of MRI, called Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL), could detect changes in kidney cancer tumors as early as two weeks after starting treatment. Six people with advanced kidney cancer took part. The goal was to see if this method could show treatment effects sooner than standard scans, which usually wait months. The study was ended early, so results are limited.
