NCT ID NCT00581906
First seen Mar 06, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study uses three types of advanced MRI scans (DCE-MRI, DW-MRI, and MRS) to see if they can predict how well head and neck cancer patients will respond to surgery or chemo-radiation. About 272 adults with head and neck cancer will have these scans before and early during treatment. The goal is to find markers that help doctors identify which patients are likely to do well, potentially improving treatment choices and quality of life. No new treatments are tested; this is an observational imaging study.
