New scan could speed up thyroid cancer imaging
NCT ID NCT03196518
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new imaging tracer called 18F-TFB to see if it can show how well thyroid cancer cells take up radioactive iodine. The goal is to get results faster than current methods and without affecting later treatment. About 5 adults with thyroid cancer will receive the tracer and have a PET scan to check safety and imaging quality.
