New imaging combo could reveal hidden tumor oxygen levels

NCT ID NCT04031534

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

Summary

This study looked at 16 people with a type of throat cancer (squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx). Researchers used two types of scans—PET and MRI—to measure oxygen levels inside the tumors. They also checked tumor samples under a microscope to see if the scan results matched. The goal was to learn more about how low oxygen (hypoxia) affects cancer, not to test a new treatment.
