Testing a new PET scanner prototype
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study is testing a new type of PET scanner (called J-PET) to see if it works as well as current PET/CT machines. If you are already scheduled for a whole-body PET/CT scan, participating would mean your scan is done with this experimental scanner instead.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- Your doctor has recommended a whole-body PET/CT scan for a medical reason.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have an allergy to the radioactive tracer used in PET scans.
- You are willing and able to give your informed consent to participate.

This study tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-MY6349) to better see prostate cancer in the body. It may help doctors find cancer that has come back or spread, so you can get the right treatment sooner.
This trial tests a new PET scanner designed specifically for the prostate area (P-PET) to see if it finds prostate cancer better than a standard whole-body PET scan. If successful, it may provide more detailed images during diagnosis.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan to see how well it finds leftover cancer after you've had focal therapy (treatment to just part of the prostate) for intermediate-risk prostate cancer in the last 9 months.
This trial tests a new PET scan called XACP3 to see if it can find prostate cancer as well as the standard PSMA PET scan. You could help by having both scans to compare them.
This pilot study tests a total-body PET scan with approved tracer medicines to help detect cancer spread in people with suspected metastatic prostate cancer or certain neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). You may be able to join if recent scans already suggest metastasis and you can safely complete the scan timing and positioning.
This trial tests a new PET/CT imaging method that uses two different tracers at the same time to better see cancers and Parkinson's syndrome. It may help doctors find and monitor disease more accurately.
