U.S., Jan. 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07343271) titled 'Dual-energy CT vs. MRI in the Evaluation of Squamous Cell Carcinomas of the Oral Cavity and Oropharynx' on Jan. 06.
Brief Summary: The diagnostic and pre-therapeutic assessment of squamous cell carcinomas requires a neck and chest CT scan and a neck and facial MRI, which is the most effective examination, to establish the TNM stage of the tumor. However, obtaining this complete assessment can delay treatment. Confirmation of the non-inferiority of 40keV dual-energy CT in BOLT compared to MRI would spare the patient an additional MRI examination, speed up the pre-treatment assessment, reduce the loss of opportunity due to delayed tre...
