Testing spectral CT for colorectal cancer spread to liver or belly
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of CT scan (spectral CT) to see how well it detects colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver or belly lining. It may help doctors better plan surgery to remove all the cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have colorectal cancer that has spread to your liver or the lining of your belly (peritoneum).
- Your cancer can be removed completely with surgery, and that surgery is planned.
- The spread of your cancer is only in your liver or peritoneum—not to other areas like lungs or bones.
- You are not currently having chemotherapy without plans for surgery.
