About this trial

The study consists in the retrospective and prospective collection of imaging data (along with clinical information related to treatment) of skull-base chordoma patients treated with particle therapy, to derive imaging biomarkers which, integrated with advanced mathematical models, will allow predicting treatment outcome on a multi-scale basis.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Palliative treatment

Other malignancies with disease-free interval < 5 years (excepting pre- cancerous lesions)

Pregnancy
