Study Summary

This trial investigates whether hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging (hpMRI) can predict treatment response in patients with thyroid cancer and other malignancies of the head and neck undergoing radiation therapy and/or receiving systemic therapy before surgery. An hpMRI is like a standard MRI but involves the use of an imaging contrast agent called hyperpolarized 13-C-pyruvate. Diagnostic procedures, such as hpMRI, may predict a patient's response to treatment and may help plan the best treatment.

Primary Outcome

To measure metabolic imaging data or information derived from hyperpolarized pyruvate MRI (hpMRI) that can be used to identify an early indication of response to therapy in patients with thyroid cancer. Specifically, we measure the kPL-the apparent rate constant for conversion of HP pyruvate into lactate-after one week of treatment compared to baseline measurements acquired prior to start of therapy. The kPL will be calculated from dynamic images of HP pyruvate and its metabolites. The kPL value
