NCT ID NCT06265272
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to improve how doctors see liver damage (cirrhosis), liver cancer, and high blood pressure in the liver using a special PET/MRI scan. About 45 adults with cirrhosis will get this scan to see if it gives clearer pictures than current methods. The goal is to make diagnosis and treatment planning more accurate without needing a needle biopsy.
