New scan seeks to spot hidden cancer

NCT ID NCT03275974

Summary

This study tested whether two new types of PET scans could better detect tumors in people with advanced colorectal cancer that had spread. Six participants received two different radioactive tracers and underwent scans to see if these new methods were more accurate than standard CT or MRI scans. The goal was to gather information to help predict how patients might respond to certain cancer therapies.
