Testing image-guided radiotherapy using MRI scans
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be an adult (18 years or older).
- Your radiation doctor must think you’re well enough to receive external beam radiation therapy.
- You must be able to come back for follow-up visits.
- You must be able to safely have an MRI scan (no MRI-related restrictions).
- You must be able to lie flat and stay still long enough for the MRI and treatment.
- You must be able to clearly agree to take part in the study (informed consent).

This study tests new real-time image-guided radiation therapy methods for people getting curative radiation for certain cancers (brain, breast, head and neck, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, prostate, or spine). It aims to see if these advanced imaging techniques work safely and effectively during treatment.
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 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.
This trial checks whether it’s practical and safe to deliver radiation treatment using real-time MRI guidance, with the process supported online. It may help patients whose doctors recommend radiation by testing a modern way to plan and deliver treatment more precisely.
This study tests MRI scanning and image analysis methods to help doctors plan radiation treatment more accurately and assess how well it’s working. You might help improve how MRI is used for radiation planning and follow-up.
This feasibility study tests whether an MRI-guided radiation approach can be used safely and practically for people with certain stages of cervical cancer. It’s meant to help doctors plan radiation more accurately, while checking whether the treatment process works well.
