Looking at CT scans to better see colon cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have colon cancer confirmed by a biopsy (a tissue sample taken during a colonoscopy or similar procedure).
- Before your surgery, you had a special CT scan (a detailed X-ray) of your belly and pelvis with contrast dye.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You agree to let the researchers use your medical records and test results for this study.

This study tests whether using CT scan images to guide doctors during colonoscopy (a camera exam of your colon) improves how well the procedure goes and reduces doctor stress. You'll answer questions about your experience before and after the procedure.
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.
This trial uses a special CT scanner to get clearer images of colorectal cancer before treatment, which may help doctors more accurately determine how far the cancer has spread. The goal is to plan the most effective treatment.
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 retrospective study uses existing colorectal cancer imaging and/or preserved tissue samples to support more precise (personalized) research. It may help researchers better understand colorectal cancer over time, but it does not involve new treatment.
