First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This study explores whether a special type of radiation planning can protect the ovaries of young women (ages 18-50) receiving pelvic radiation for cancers like uterine, rectal, or cervical cancer. Researchers will use scans to see if they can adjust the radiation beam to avoid the ovaries while still treating the tumor effectively. The goal is to reduce the risk of early menopause and infertility without compromising cancer treatment.
