New scans could reveal hidden dangers in rare autoimmune disease
NCT ID NCT07258524
Summary
This study aims to see if a new type of full-body scan (PET scan) can better detect active disease and predict future heart disease risk in people with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), a serious autoimmune condition. Researchers will compare scan results from about 120 people—some with active AAV and some without—to current blood tests and heart health measurements. The goal is to find a more accurate, less invasive way to monitor this complex disease and identify patients who need extra care to prevent heart problems.
