Magnetic Resonance Whole Body Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Finding Bone or Lymph Node Metastasis in Participants With High-Risk Prostate Cancer

Magnetic Resonance Imaging as a Comprehensive Staging Tool for the Evaluation of High-Risk Prostate Carcinoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Nov 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This trial studies how well magnetic resonance whole body diffusion-weighted imaging works in finding cancer that has spread to the bone or lymph nodes (metastasis) in participants with high-risk prostate cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as magnetic resonance whole body diffusion-weighted imaging (a method to show how water moves in a certain area) may help find bone or lymph nodes metastasis.
