Energy CT in Imaging and Diagnosis of Gastric Cancer

Diagnostic and Predictive Performance of Dual-/ Muti- Energy CT and MRI in the Treatment Response and Survival Prognosis of Gastric Cancer

Sponsor

The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University

Enrollment

300 participants

Start Date

Sep 1, 2024

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Gastric Cancer CT

Summary

Accurate preoperative prediction of risk stratification, treatment response, and survival prognosis in gastric cancer is important for improving clinical treatment decisions, prolonging patient survival, and improving patient quality of life. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of the multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and Dual-/Muti-energy CT and photon-counting Detector CT(PCD-CT) in the diagnosis and management of gastric cancer.

Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is evaluating whether a newer type of CT scanner (energy CT or spectral CT) can provide better imaging and diagnosis for gastric (stomach) cancer compared to standard CT scans, especially in determining how far the cancer has spread. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with stomach cancer confirmed by biopsy - You are scheduled for stomach cancer surgery, including radical removal of the stomach or exploratory surgery **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are unwilling or unable to provide consent - Your CT imaging is of poor quality or the tumor is too small to be clearly seen - You have another type of cancer in addition to stomach cancer, or have significant failure of a major organ Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
