MRI-based imaging to plan bone tumor surgery
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether MRI scans can replace CT scans to map bone tumors and plan surgery. If successful, it may allow some patients to avoid CT radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a bone sarcoma (a type of bone cancer).
- Your doctor has recommended surgery to remove the tumor.
- You do not have any metal implants that are not safe for MRI.
- You are not severely claustrophobic.
- You are not pregnant.

This trial will see if special MRI scans taken during radiation therapy can help predict how well the tumor responds, potentially guiding future treatment. You will receive standard radiation for sarcoma and have a few extra MRI scans.
This study tests a new way to make MRI scans look like CT scans to find bone damage from multiple myeloma. You may join if you have just been diagnosed or if your disease came back after strong treatments, and you need bone imaging for staging.
This trial is testing a better way to plan proton radiation using MRI images, aiming to deliver treatment more accurately for chordoma or chondrosarcoma in the spine/sacrum area. You may benefit if the trial’s planning method helps target the tumor while sparing nearby healthy tissue.
This trial uses MRI scans to create a model that may predict if a musculoskeletal tumor is spreading. It aims to help doctors decide on the best surgical treatment.
This study uses an MRI scan during surgery to help doctors remove brain metastases more completely. It may help ensure that all tumor tissue is removed.
This trial studies new imaging methods to better identify and stage (find how far it has spread) suspected bone or soft-tissue tumors. It may help your care team choose the most accurate next steps based on your scans.
