Green tea scan: tracking scarring in lungs
NCT ID NCT06265532
Summary
This study is testing a new type of imaging scan to see if it can detect changes in lung scarring caused by a compound from green tea (EGCG). Up to 22 people with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) will get two special PET scans to measure collagen in their lungs. The goal is to see if the scan can help researchers understand if and how the treatment is working.
