Summary

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 receive the scan, and researchers will measure how well the scan detects lesions. The goal is to improve diagnosis accuracy without providing direct treatment.
