One tracer to rule them all: new PET method could simplify heart imaging

NCT ID NCT06014515

First seen Mar 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This early-phase study at UC Davis tests whether a single PET tracer (FDG) can measure both blood flow and sugar metabolism in the heart at the same time. Researchers will compare FDG results with a standard flow-only tracer in 60 healthy adults and people with heart disease. The goal is to simplify heart imaging, not to treat any condition.
