Summary

This early-stage study tests a new imaging agent called NeuCaVis in 12 healthy volunteers. NeuCaVis is a radioactive tracer used in PET scans that targets fructose use, which may highlight inflammation better than standard tracers. The goal is to check safety and how the tracer spreads in the body, with an optional comparison to a standard scan.
