Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Sub-study I:No quantitative endpoints will be derived. Success will be defined<br /><br>as having a high-quality fast quantitative MRI protocol for multi-contrast<br /><br>imaging of tumour pathophysiology at 3T. This includes: visibility of tumor<br /><br>tissue on the individual MR images, visibility of tumor tissue on the derived<br /><br>quantitative MRI parameter maps and adequate signal to noise ratio in the tumor<br /><br>tissue<br /><br>Sub-study II: Inter- and intra-session repeatability coefficient are assessed,<br /><br>based on the standard deviation of repeated measures, indicating 95% CI of<br /><br>repeated measures.<br /><br>Sub-study III: The effect size of quantitative MRI parameters: f at MRI-1,<br /><br>Ktrans at MRI-1, &Delta;D from MRI-1 to MRI-3 for prediction of the presence of<br /><br>residual tumor in the ex vivo surgical specimen in individual esophageal cancer<br /><br>patients</p><br>
