Spectral CT scans for lung cancer detection
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new way to look at CT scans (called spectral imaging) to see if it can better detect lung cancer in people who are suspected of having it. If you are being referred for lung cancer testing, this study may help doctors get clearer information from your scans.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your doctor suspects you might have lung cancer and referred you to Copenhagen University Hospital for tests.
- You are able to have a CT scan with a special dye (contrast) given into a vein.
- You have not already been diagnosed with lung cancer at another hospital.
- You do not have any other type of cancer that is known or being treated.
- You are healthy enough to receive treatment for lung cancer if needed.
