New PET scan may end painful vein tests for adrenal tumors

NCT ID NCT07605156

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a new type of PET scan (68Ga-Pentixafor) can accurately identify which adrenal gland is overproducing hormones in patients with both aldosterone and cortisol excess. About 130 adults will receive the scan and standard vein sampling, then researchers compare results. If successful, the scan could replace the more invasive adrenal vein sampling procedure.
