Overview

Establish a deep learning model based on multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging to predict the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced rectal cancer.This study intends to combine DCE with conventional MRI images for DL, establish a multi-parameter MRI model for predicting the efficacy of CRT, and compare it with the DL and non-artificial quantitative MRI diagnostic model constructed by conventional MRI to evaluate the role of DL in MRI predicting CRT. And this study also tries to build a DL platform to assess the efficacy of LARC neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, accurately assess patients' complete respose (pCR) after CRT, and provide an important basis for guiding clinical decision-making.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
