Acquisition of Trans-Rectal Ultrasound (TRUS) Images of the Female Pelvis for Real-Time MRI-US Fusion Based Needle Tracking for Image-Guided Brachytherapy: A Pre-Feasibility Study

Status: closed to accrual

The purpose of this study is to see if it is possible to combine ultrasound and MRI pictures together using Artemis software that has been adapted for female pelvis images for use in image-guided brachytherapy.

Inclusion Criteria

* Histologically proven invasive primary squamous, adenosquamous, or adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix, (recurrent or medically inoperable) uterine adenocarcinoma. * Treatment plan must include curative-intent definitive radiation that includes brachytherapy treatments with or without concurrent chemotherapy * Adults ≥ 18 years of age * ECOG performance status 0-2 * Patient must sign a study-specific informed consent prior to study entry

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients with active rectal bleeding or rectal ulcer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To utilize transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) images of the intact and post-hysterectomy female pelvis in order to provide feasibility information for a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-TRUS fusion based three-dimensional (3D) needle navigation system for use in image guided brachytherapy.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Patients undergo SOC 3D TRUS and have their medical records reviewed on study.
