New scan could give early warning of Cancer's return

NCT ID NCT02862678

Summary

This study tested whether a special type of MRI scan, done soon after patients finished chemoradiation treatment for head and neck cancer, could predict if the cancer would come back. Researchers followed 59 patients to see if changes seen on this scan matched up with later cancer recurrence. The goal was to find a better way to monitor patients after their initial treatment is complete.
