MRI and body test study during planned radiotherapy
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses MRI scans and blood and/or urine tests to measure changes in the body and imaging results during radiotherapy. It may help researchers understand how treatment affects the body and improve future planning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be over 18 and able to sign written consent.
- You must pass the MRI safety check (no unsafe metal or devices in your body).
- If you are a patient: you must be under a clinical oncologist at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and have radiotherapy planned to the area being scanned.
- You must be able to give blood and/or urine samples during the treatment period (if needed by the study).
- If you are a healthy volunteer: you must have no known or suspected major medical condition.
- You must not be pregnant, and you must not have HIV or active hepatitis B or C.

This study tests how well new computer methods (called algorithms and machine learning) can support radiation therapy decisions. You might benefit by helping improve how radiation is planned and checked, especially for cancers treated with curative-intent therapy.
This trial studies a way of planning and delivering radiation using MRI pictures to help target tumors more accurately. It may benefit people by improving how radiation is aligned, and it’s being tested for safety and effectiveness compared with the usual CT-based planning.
This study uses MRI scans to help improve how radiotherapy is planned and delivered. You would be an adult volunteer without a patient diagnosis, and your scan may be checked for unexpected (incidental) findings.
This study is testing whether using MRI scans can help doctors better plan radiotherapy for cancer patients. It involves having an MRI before your radiotherapy starts, and the results will be compared to your standard CT scan.
This study uses MRI scans to find areas of low oxygen in tumors and see if adjusting radiation treatment can help. It is open to adults with bladder, cervix, or prostate cancer who are getting radiation therapy at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
This trial tests whether doing daily MRI scans during planned radiotherapy can help guide treatment. It may benefit people by improving how accurately the team sees the target area each day.
