Summary

This study uses three advanced MRI techniques 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 get these scans before and early during treatment. The goal is to find markers that help doctors personalize care and improve outcomes.
