New imaging tool may predict leg amputation risk

NCT ID NCT04054609

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

Summary

This study tests whether a new type of PET/MR scan using a tracer called FAZA can measure oxygen levels in leg tissues of people with critical limb ischemia, a severe form of peripheral artery disease. About 40 adults who are scheduled for a procedure to restore blood flow will get the scan before and after treatment. The goal is to see if the scan can help predict who will benefit most from the procedure and improve treatment decisions.
