This study is looking at new ways to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to examine lung tumors and other cancers in the chest area. Researchers want to see how these tumors use sugar for growth. They will use a special sugar solution called 13C-glucose and then study a small sample of the tumor after it's removed during surgery. The goal is to find better ways to detect cancer and help doctors decide on the best treatment plan. You might be able to join if you are over 18, need surgery for a suspected cancer in your chest, and do not have poorly controlled diabetes. The study aims to enroll 200 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study planning to enroll 200 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.

What's involved

You would undergo an MRI scan using 13C-glucose within 5 days of your scheduled surgery. A small sample of your tumor will be studied after surgery.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Your DCE-MRI will be measured at one time, within 5 days of your scheduled surgery.
