Summary

This study tests a new type of PET/MRI scan to see if it can better tell the difference between a growing brain tumor and changes caused by radiation or immunotherapy. About 30 adults with brain metastases who have had radiation in the last 2 years will get a single 3-hour scan session. The goal is to improve how doctors detect active cancer after treatment.
