First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study tests whether a special PET scan (FAPI PET) can better detect active scarring in the lungs of people with fibrotic lung disease. Researchers will scan 50 adults up to 4 times to see how the tracer binds to scar-forming cells. The goal is to improve diagnosis and tracking of disease activity, not to treat the condition.
