CT-Based Changes in Bone and Marrow Among Patients on Oral Steroids

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of emerging CT-based tools to measure changes in central and peripheral bone density, micro-structure, and marrow adipose tissue (MAT) among patients treated with oral steroids.
