New tech aims to clear the fog for prostate cancer patients with metal hips

NCT ID NCT07042256

Summary

This study is testing a new way to deliver precise radiation therapy to men with prostate cancer who have had both hips replaced. Hip implants can create blurry areas on medical scans, making it hard for doctors to see the prostate clearly for treatment planning. Researchers will use a special low-strength MRI machine that is less affected by the metal, combined with a new patient transfer system, to see if they can deliver more accurate radiation treatment to this specific group of patients.
