PITUITARY ADENOMA

This study compares a new ultra-high resolution PET/CT scanner, the NeuroEXPLORER, with standard clinical PET/CT scanners for imaging the head and neck. Researchers aim to see if the new device provides more detailed images to improve diagnosis of conditions like dementia, Parkin…

This study tests whether a new type of PET/CT scan, using a radioactive tracer called 68Ga-DOTATOC, can find neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and similar tumors more safely and accurately than current imaging methods. About 800 people with known or suspected NETs will receive the sca…

This early-phase study tests a new radioactive tracer called [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-RF for PET scans in 30 people with pituitary tumors. The goal is to see if this tracer can better highlight tumors and help doctors tell different tumor types apart. Participants receive an injection of th…

This study follows 75 adults with benign or slow-growing brain tumors who are receiving partial brain radiation. Researchers will use memory tests and MRI scans before treatment and at 6 and 12 months after to see how radiation affects thinking and memory. The goal is to identify…

This phase 1 study tests a new PET imaging tracer called 89Zr-cRGDY in 17 people with malignant brain tumors or pituitary adenomas. The tracer is given in a very small dose to see how it spreads and clears from the body. The goal is to improve brain tumor imaging, not to treat th…

This study looks at 500 adults having pituitary tumor surgery through the nose. Researchers want to find out who gets headaches soon after surgery and build a tool to predict that risk. Participants report their pain daily and fill out surveys for up to 3 months after surgery.
