This study is testing three new PET/CT scans to see if they can detect alpha-synuclein, a protein linked to Parkinson's disease and similar conditions. Researchers will scan 500 adults who have or may have Parkinson's to measure how well the scans identify the protein. The goal i…

This study is testing whether a special PET/CT scan can help doctors find and diagnose diseases related to amino acid transport, such as brain tumors (glioma), overactive parathyroid glands, and amino acid transport disorders. About 500 adults with suspected or known tumors will …

This study is testing a new radioactive tracer called [18F]FT8 for PET/CT scans to see if it can safely and clearly show amyloid deposits in organs, especially the heart. Researchers will compare the scans to standard tests like echocardiograms and MRIs. The study involves 20 peo…

This study tests a new imaging agent called [18F]NIDF that may better detect abnormal tau protein tangles in the brain using PET scans. Researchers aim to see if this tracer is safe and more accurate than current methods for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease and other tau-related ne…

This study is testing a special type of PET/CT scan that looks for a protein called PD-L1 on cancer cells. The goal is to see if this scan can find tumors and their spread more accurately than standard imaging. About 500 adults with suspected or known PD-L1-related cancers will r…

This study looks at why some people with a brain bleed (subarachnoid hemorrhage) develop lung injury. Researchers will measure a substance called hyaluronic acid in lung fluid and blood to see if it plays a role. The goal is to find better ways to diagnose and treat this complica…

This study looks at how a gene called SNRK might be linked to blood vessel aging, which can lead to heart disease. Researchers will measure SNRK levels in the blood of 180 adults aged 18-80 and use ultrasound to check their blood vessel health. The goal is to understand the aging…
