Brief Title: Identification and Prevention of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Gynecologic Cancer Survivors
Official Title: Identification and Prevention of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction in Gynecologic Cancer Survivors
Study ID: NCT05769062
Brief Summary: The two goals of this study are to establish a standardized method of assessing the pelvic floor for patients undergoing pelvic radiation and to determine the feasibility of inverse-RT planning using MRI to identify dosimetric constraints of the pelvic floor musculature for use in radiation planning. The investigators hypothesize that an exam-based diagnostic tool will provide more information about the areas of injury related to pelvic radiation than patient-reported outcomes, and could be used in future studies of preventive strategies. An exam-based tool will also allow measurement of the pain dose-response to radiation treatment of specific areas, which could be excluded from radiation fields during treatment planning.
