ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a type of MRI called functional MRI to see how reliable it is for measuring conditions in the pelvic area, like rectal and pelvic cancers. The researchers want to find out if they get consistent results when healthy volunteers undergo the MRI multiple times or when different observers look at the results. This information will help improve how we use functional MRI in the future for patients with pelvic diseases.

To be part of this study, participants need to be at least 18 years old and in good health. They should also be able to safely undergo an MRI scan. Unfortunately, people who have had previous radiation treatment to the pelvic area or have certain pelvic health issues cannot join. While the study is still in the planning stages and not yet recruiting participants, those who take part can expect to help researchers learn more about how reliable these MRI measurements are, which could ultimately benefit patients with pelvic cancers.
