Summary

This study tests a new radioactive imaging agent called [18F]-C-SNAT4 to see how it spreads in the body and whether it can help detect lung cancer tumors. About 20 healthy volunteers and people with lung cancer will receive the agent and have PET scans. The goal is to understand safety, radiation exposure, and whether the agent highlights tumors differently from healthy tissue.
