- Interventions
- Device: MRI
- Registration Number
- NCT01985932
- Lead Sponsor
- Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine
- Brief Summary
This study is being done to evaluate the use of MRI during radiation treatment planning to identify areas of tumor within the prostate to aid in future treatment planning and targeting of prostate cancer. This study will be conducted at the University of Pennsylvania Health System. The study is projected to run for 18 months.
