NCT ID NCT07285564
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a special PET-CT scan (micro-PET-CT) can accurately show where head and neck cancer ends, compared to standard lab tests. Ten adults with operable head and neck tumors will have their surgical specimens scanned and then checked under a microscope. If successful, this could help surgeons remove all cancer in one operation.
