New imaging technique could make brain tumor radiation more precise for kids
NCT ID NCT04908709
Summary
This study is testing whether a special type of MRI scan, called spectroscopic MRI, can help doctors better target proton radiation therapy for children with aggressive brain tumors. The scans create detailed maps of tumor activity without needing contrast dye. Researchers want to see if using these maps to guide radiation leads to more accurate treatment with fewer side effects on healthy brain tissue.
