What to expect

No one can promise a trial will help you personally — that is what the research is trying to find out.

What participation involves

  • Procedures mentioned: MRI scans

Only what the study's summary and detailed description on ClinicalTrials.gov say. Time periods may describe the whole study or a part of it — ask the study team what applies to you.

  • "To develop and evaluate quantitative dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI analysis techniques that minimize patient- and scanner-specific variabilities in the calculation of quantitative parameters."
  • "To develop and evaluate multi-class deep learning models that systematically integrate quantitative multi-parametric (mp)-MRI features for accurate detection and classification of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa)."
  • "PROSPECTIVE: Patients undergo additional 3 Tesla (T) MRI imaging over 30 minutes before, during, or after their standard of care 3T MRI for a total of 1.5 hours."
Compensation
Not stated
  • Study-related exams and procedures are typically provided at no cost. This is how many trials work in general — confirm the details for this study with the study team.
  • Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
  • Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
  • Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.

About this study

This study evaluates how new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and artificial intelligence techniques improve the image quality and quantitative information for future prostate MRI exams in patients with suspicious of confirmed prostate cancer. The MRI and artificial intelligence techniques developed in this study may improve the accuracy in diagnosing prostate cancer in the future using less invasive techniques than what is currently used.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
