| Main Objective: Proof of concept study for application of hyperpolarized [1-13C]Pyruvate in magnetic resonance spectroscopy for early detection of therapeutic effects in treatment of mycisis fugoides.;Secondary Objective: to test whether the sensitivity of MR-hyperpolarized [1-13C]Pyruvate based MR-spectroscopy is high enough for future studies for of treatment effects in skin cancers. ;Primary end point(s): The study will include 20 patients with MF treated at Department of Dermatology, Aarhus University Hospital. The first up to 10 patients in the study will be used for optimization of the technique (scanning parameter settings an coil selection: either 13C/21Na coil with 10x10 cm FOW or 13C/1H coil with 5x5 cm FOW). If sufficient signals can be obtained, the study will move on and include further 10 patients, who will be scanned 3 times, before treatment (day 0), day 8 and day 21 after initiation of treatment. Scanning’s of anatomical sites for each patient include the selected target MF skin lesion and non-lesional skin. Moreover, 5 patients with psoriasis and 5 healthy volunteers will be scanned once. The study will end after completing the above given exams. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Milestones: a) if metabolic data form the first patients examined for adjusting the system do show too low signal to noise level the program will be canceled b) if the first metabolic data (before treatment) from MF patients are not different from the findings in patients with psoriasis the aim of the program shifts. | — |
