Using CT scans to classify colon tumors for better treatment decisions
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at CT scans and pathology reports from people who had colon surgery to see if a computer can help doctors classify tumors more accurately. This might lead to better treatment choices in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult who had colon surgery at an AP-HP hospital between January 1, 2017, and November 1, 2024.
- You had a CT scan of your abdomen and pelvis within 60 days before your surgery.
- You have a pathology report from your surgery (within 90 days after surgery).
- Your surgery was for a colon tumor (diagnosis code C18).
- You did not receive chemotherapy before your surgery.

This study looks back at your CT scans to see if a new imaging technique can better show colon cancer details. Your participation simply allows researchers to review your existing scans and health records — no extra visits or treatments are needed.
This study uses 3D imaging to help doctors plan surgery for locally advanced colon cancer. By creating a detailed model of your tumor and nearby structures, it may help the surgeon remove the cancer more precisely and safely. If you join, you will still receive standard surgery, but the preparation will include this 3D technology.
This study collects tissue, blood, and imaging samples from people having surgery for colon cancer or related liver tumors, to learn more about the disease and potentially improve future treatments.
This study uses abdominal CT scans to help screen for and diagnose various abdominal tumors. It looks at both people with confirmed tumors and healthy volunteers to build a model that can improve early cancer detection.
This study looks at how well cancer found on scans matches the actual cancer seen under the microscope after surgery. It may help improve how doctors plan treatment for colon, sigmoid, or rectal adenocarcinoma.
This study uses artificial intelligence to help doctors predict if colon polyps are harmless during a colonoscopy. This could reduce the need for lab tests and save costs.
