New Full-Body scanner aims to spot hidden cancers
NCT ID NCT07690917
First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new total-body PET scanner called the Biograph Vision Quadra to see if it can produce clearer images and find more tumors than standard PET/CT scanners. The study includes adults with non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, or prostate cancer who are already scheduled for a PET/CT scan. Participants will receive one or two additional scans with the new scanner, and researchers will compare the images to see if any new or additional lesions are detected.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Biograph Vision Quadra scanner
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this scanner could improve cancer detection and staging by finding more lesions than current scanners.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage quality improvement study. The new scanner may not consistently outperform standard scanners, and results may not apply to all patients or cancer types.

Who is studied
Any MSKCC patients with histologically confirmed cancer, who will be scheduled to receive a planned PET-CT scan at the MSK main campus may be enrolled in this image evaluation and improvement study. Potential patients will be identified by a member of the patient's treatment team at MSKCC, who will introduce the study to them.

Inclusion Criteria: Eligibility Criteria for objective #1: * Patients with histologically-confirmed non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) with a single or multiple lung nodules. * Patients who are undergoing a planned PET-CT scan at main campus of MSK. * Patients must be ≥ 18 years old Eligibility Criteria for objective #2: * Patients with disease within the chest, abdomen or pelvis, who could benefit from visualizing the pharmacokinetics of radiotracer uptake within all disease sites simultaneously. * Patients with metastatic prostate or head and neck cancer. * Patients with prostate cancer who are undergoing a 68Ga-PSMA or 18F-FDG scan at the main campus of MSK. * Patients with head and neck cancer who are undergoing a 18F-FDG scan at the main campus of MSK * Patients must be ≥ 18 years old Eligibility Criteria for objective #3: * Patients with histologically-confirmed cancer from all three groups (lung cancer, head and neck cancer, prostate cancer). * Patients who are undergoing an 68Ga-PSMA or 18F-FDG or an \[18F\]-fluormisonidazole PET-CT scan at the main campus of MSK. * Patients willing to return to the MITS clinc for late imaging session between 2 to 6 hours after the PET radiotracer injection. (In current practice, FDG is imaged between 1 and 1.5 hours post injection, and FMISO is imaged between 2.5 and 3 hours post injection) * Patients must be ≥ 18 years old Exclusion Criteria: * Patients who suffer from claustrophobia. * Women who are pregnant or breast-feeding. * Patients \< 18 years of age
