New MRI method aims to sharpen prostate cancer treatment for patients with hip replacements

NCT ID NCT07042256

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a special low-field MRI scanner can give clearer images for prostate cancer radiation therapy in people who have both hips replaced. Standard MRI often creates blurry images around metal implants, making it hard to aim the radiation precisely. The researchers will test a system where patients are scanned in a low-field MRI and then moved to a radiation machine without changing position, hoping to improve treatment accuracy and reduce side effects. About 13 adults with localized prostate cancer and bilateral hip prostheses will take part.
