Brain tumor diagnosis gets a High-Tech upgrade: PET/MRI spots key mutations
NCT ID NCT07405372
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new type of PET/MRI scan that looks for a specific gene change (IDH mutation) in brain tumors called gliomas. Knowing this mutation helps doctors choose the right treatment and predict outcomes. The trial will enroll 10 adults with suspected or known gliomas to see how well the scan works compared to standard methods.
