First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a special type of scan (SPECT/CT) to see how well it measures liver function in people with liver cancer who are getting radiation or surgery. The goal was to learn if this scan can help doctors see which parts of the liver are working well before, during, and after treatment. The study included 41 adults with different types of liver cancer, but it was stopped early.
