Study Summary

Unless a cancer quickly gets smaller with radiation or chemotherapy, the investigators cannot tell if the treatment is working or not. In this research program, two techniques using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning will be tested in people who have sarcomas, which are rare cancers starting in muscle, tendons, and bones. These particular MRI tests are called dynamic contrast enhanced MRI and diffusion weighted MRI. These MRI scans allow visualization of how sarcomas are different from the normal organs of the body. These MRI tests will tell us the location of sarcoma and its proximity to other structures, as well as correlation of imaging with pathological characteristics after surgery
