Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 5 months to 17 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Study population: Patients included in the three groups are followed in the visceral surgery department of Necker-Enfants Malades Hospital in Paris (France) for whose an MRI is required as part of diagnosis, extension assessment or monitoring.

To be included, patients must meet the following criteria:

  • Patient aged between 5 months and 17 years
  • Patient with a confirmed diagnosis of :
  • Abdomino-pelvic tumour
  • Pelvic malformation
  • Patient whose parents or legal guardians have read, accepted and signed the study consent form
  • Patients whose parents or legal guardians are beneficiaries of a social security scheme.

To be included, control patients (patients other than those suffering from an abdomino-pelvic tumour or malformation) must meet the following criteria:

  • Patient aged between 5 months and 17 years inclusive.
  • A patient being followed in the visceral surgery department for a pathology other than tumour or malformation, and requiring MRI as part of his or her diagnosis, extension assessment or monitoring.
  • Patient whose parents or legal guardians have read, accepted and signed the study consent form.
  • Patient whose parents or guardians are beneficiaries of a social security scheme.

Non inclusion criteria :

Patients

  • Patient with a contraindication to MRI: metallic ocular foreign body, pacemaker, mechanical cardiac valve, old vascular clips on cerebral aneurysm, etc.
  • Patient having participated in a therapeutic clinical trial involving a new molecule in the 30 days prior to inclusion.

Controls :

  • Patient with a contraindication to MRI: ocular metallic foreign body, pacemaker, cardiac mechanical valve, old vascular clips on cerebral aneurysm, etc.
  • Patient having participated in a therapeutic clinical trial involving a new molecule in the 30 days prior to inclusion.

About this study

This study is part of the launch of a multidisciplinary project called IMAG2, for image-guided minimally invasive surgery. It involves collaboration between the radiology and surgery teams at Necker Hospital and the Image Processing and Interpretation (TII) team at the LTCI at Télécom ParisTech.

To make a decision, surgeons need access to a 3D model reflecting the anatomy of the specific patient and its pathological variations. Patient-specific 3D reconstruction provides a significant improvement, leading to a precise assessment of the malformation or tumour and its relationship with surrounding organs, nerves and vessels. It allows the surgeon to simulate a pre-operative procedure, which is a definite advantage in terms of safe, effective and curative surgery, particularly in oncology. MRI has been chosen as the basic imaging technique because of its non-irradiating nature and the current lack of 3D MRI reconstruction technology.

The study aims to provide an aid to diagnosis and surgical planning by developing dedicated methods and algorithms for segmenting not only the tumour but also the main anatomical components surrounding the tumour from 3D MRI imaging data. The imaging will be performed on a 3 Tesla MRI. The data will be that required for diagnosis and surgical planning, acquired on a routine clinical basis with an expected benefit for patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Images produced by General Electrics' 3 Tesla MRI

    Nerve network in areas of interest (pelvis) using tractography analysis with 3 Tesla MRI by automation of 3D imaging using images produced by General Electrics' 3 Tesla MRI. This automation will be carried out using software developed by Telecom Paristech.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Post-operative consequences of surgery and/or rehabilitation treatment in patients with abdomino-pelvic tumours or pelvic malformations.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malformation and Tumor, run by Imagine Institute at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Images produced by General Electrics' 3 Tesla MRI (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jan 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
