New 25-Minute bone scan could spot cancer faster with less radiation
NCT ID NCT04157166
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new 3D bone scan camera (VERITON-CT) that takes only 25 minutes and uses less radiation than standard scans. Researchers compared it to conventional 2D scans in 146 people with suspected or known bone metastases. The goal was to see if the new method could accurately detect and classify cancer spread in the bones.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to faster, more accurate bone scans with lower radiation for people with suspected cancer spread.
What could go wrong
This is a completed imaging comparison study, not a treatment trial. The new camera may not prove better in all cases, and results may not apply to all hospitals.
