NCT ID NCT04724369

First seen May 08, 2026 ยท Last updated May 08, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new radioactive imaging agent called 18F-mFBG to see if it can accurately detect neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer. About 43 people with known or suspected neuroblastoma will receive the agent and have a PET scan. The goal is to see if this method works as well as or better than current imaging to confirm or rule out the disease.
