NCT06755866

Brief Summary

To prospectively collect medical images and clinical data related to esophageal cancer using 4D Free Breathing DCE-MRI technology, to evaluate the image quality in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer, and to predict the efficacy of preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Tumor response assessment

    This study aims to assess tumor treatment response using pathology gold standard pCR . pCR refers to the state in which the pathological tumor completely disappears after systemic therapy, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or endocrine therapy.

    Surgery was performed within one month after neoadjuvant therapy, and the pathological pCR of the pathological results obtained from the surgery was used as the gold standard in this study to evaluate tumor treatment response

Study Arms (1)

Application of DCE-MRI based on 4D Free Breathing in predicting the efficacy of preoperative neoadju

EXPERIMENTAL

Prospective collection uses a Philips 3.0T MRI scanner equipped with a dStream Torso 32-channel coil. DCE-MRI was performed using a free respiration sequence with a flow rate of 3.0 m/s. The medical images and clinical data related to esophageal cancer using 4D Free Breathing DCE-MRI technology were performed by two radiologists (one with 3 years of diagnostic experience and the other with 15 years of diagnostic experience), including subjective and objective assessment of image quality in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer, and the use of this technology to predict the efficacy of preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer with pathological PCR as the outcome.

Diagnostic Test: The application value of MRI 4D Free Breathing DCE-MRI in the treatment of esophageal cancer

Interventions
