Extra bone scan tests to study unclear single bone spots
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Cancer, Injuries & trauma 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.

- You can take part in scan recordings and stay still during the test.
- You are covered by a social security health plan.
- You are not pregnant, and if you could become pregnant you use reliable birth control (or you are not breastfeeding).

This study uses a special scan (99mTc-FAPI SPECT/CT) to help tell whether a single bone spot is harmless or cancerous. It may give a clearer answer without needing a biopsy right away.
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 detailed bone scan (SPECT/CT) to better understand what is causing bone problems, such as cancer spread or arthritis. It helps doctors tell the difference between these two causes for better treatment.
This study tests whether a specialized nuclear imaging camera can better detect multiple tumors or lesions in your body. You'll receive a standard radioactive tracer scan (like a bone scan or thyroid scan) that's already part of your care, but we'll also image you with this newer camera technology to see if it works well.
This study is testing whether a special bone scan (tomoscintigraphy) can better detect non-healing (pseudarthrosis) after cervical spine fusion surgery. The goal is to see if it gives more accurate information than standard X-rays to help guide treatment decisions.
This study looks at how different types of breast cancer spread to the bones, using bone scans. It may help doctors better understand and predict bone metastasis based on your cancer's specific characteristics.
