NCT ID NCT07288931

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

Summary

This study tests a newer type of PET/CT scan (Al18F-NOTA-LM3) against the current standard (68Ga-DOTATATE) to see which finds more tumors in people with pheochromocytoma or paraganglioma (PPGL). About 40 adults with suspected or confirmed PPGL will receive both scans, and doctors will compare how many tumors each detects. The goal is to improve diagnosis of these rare adrenal gland tumors.
