New scan aims to help surgeons 'See' cancer left behind during operations

NCT ID NCT07285564

Summary

This study is testing a new type of imaging scan called micro-PET-CT to see if it can help surgeons during head and neck cancer surgery. The goal is to check if the scan can accurately show whether any cancer cells remain at the edges of the removed tissue, which could help surgeons remove the tumor more completely. Researchers will compare the scan's results to the standard lab analysis of the tissue after surgery.
