Identification of Pre-Malignant Lesions In Pediatric Patients With Neurofibromatosis Type 1 Using Novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging Techniques Paired With Artificial Intelligence

Description

This is a single arm pilot trial of a novel whole-body Magnetic Resonance Imaging paired with artificial intelligence intervention, to evaluate feasibility defined as scan-rescan reliability, and to estimate the positive predictive value of changes in Magnetic Resonance Imaging scans from baseline to 12-month visit using an Artificial Intelligence algorithm, among 15 pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Between the ages of 5 and \<18 years at the start of study. If subject will turn 18 during the study, they will be allowed to enroll.
  • * Clinically or molecularly confirmed diagnosis of NF-1. Subjects with mosaic/segmental NF-1 also qualify for the study.
  • * Requiring sedation for imaging.
  • * Implants and/or Devices: Mechanical, magnetic or electrical activated implants; Ferromagnetic implants and foreign bodies
  • * Claustrophobia, problems being in enclosed spaces, or inability to lie facing upwards.
  • * Allergy to animal dander or animal-instigated asthma.
