First seen Mar 22, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study tests whether eating a special low-glucose, high-fat diet for 7 days before a PET scan can help doctors see a type of slow-growing lung cancer that often gets missed on standard scans. About 30 adults with suspected or confirmed lepidic-predominant lung adenocarcinoma will follow a ketogenic diet and then have a PET scan. The goal is to see if the diet makes the cancer show up more clearly, improving diagnosis.
