Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Colorectal Cancer
Interventions
Other: Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Registration Number
NCT01983371
Lead Sponsor
Scott Potenta, MD, PhD
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI in detecting lymph nodes that have been invaded by tumor cells in patients with colorectal cancer.

Detailed Description

This study will investigate the accuracy of ferumoxytol-enhanced MRI in detecting lymph nodes that have been invaded by tumor cells in patients with colorectal cancer. This study will be performed in addition to any ongoing routine care and will not serve as a substitute for any imaging tests that would be routinely performed prior to surgery.
