NCT ID NCT04081701
First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Jun 07, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a special PET/MRI scan using a radioactive tracer called 68Ga-DOTATATE can better detect certain brain tumors (like meningioma) and tell the difference between tumor regrowth and changes from past treatment. About 200 adults with these tumors will get the new scan, and doctors will compare its accuracy to standard MRI alone. The goal is to improve diagnosis and guide treatment decisions.
