High Field Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Imaging for Follow Up of Prostate Cancer Post Brachytherapy Implantation

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Prostatic Neoplasm
Registration Number
NCT00126854
Lead Sponsor
AHS Cancer Control Alberta
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to establish the correct scanning parameters for obtaining good quality 3 Tesla (3T) magnetic resonance spectroscopy images (MRSI) of the prostate gland before and after brachytherapy implantation for prostate cancer. Three Tesla MRSI may be a valuable additional diagnostic and follow-up investigation for prostate cancer patients.
