Extra bone scan tests to study unclear single bone spots
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study adds extra measurements during a bone scan to better understand a single unclear spot seen on standard imaging. The goal is to help doctors decide whether a biopsy (sample) or removal is needed, possibly reducing uncertainty.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a special imaging scan to help doctors tell whether a single bone lesion is benign or malignant. It uses a radioactive tracer that may be more accurate than standard scans, which could improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
This trial studies whether a more precise bone scan measurement (SPECT/CT) can help guide surgery planning for people with long-lasting lower back pain. It may help surgeons choose and measure the surgery in a more standardized way for certain spine conditions.
This study uses a special imaging test called SPECT/CT during a bone scan to better understand bone lesions. It may help doctors tell if bone spots are from cancer spread or from wear-and-tear changes.
This study uses a special whole-body PET/CT scan to help confirm whether a suspicious bone spot or high tumor marker means cancer. It aims to see if this new imaging method can help guide your biopsy and treatment decisions.
This study tests a new way of taking pictures of tumors (metastases) using an upgraded gamma camera. The goal is to see if this new method produces clearer images, which could help doctors find and treat cancer better. Participation is only for people who are already having a bone scan or a scan after certain types of radiation therapy.
This study uses a special bone scan to check if the neck bones did not fuse properly after your surgery. It may help find the cause of ongoing neck pain and guide further treatment.
