Brain tumor imaging study for glioblastoma patients
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study uses special PET scans (fluciclovine and FDG) and advanced MRI to create a detailed metabolic profile of glioblastoma. It may help doctors better understand your tumor before surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a new brain mass that looks like glioblastoma (GBM) or a growing lesion after prior glioblastoma treatment
- Your doctor recommends surgery to remove the tumor
- You are expected to live at least 3 more months
- You are able to tolerate MRI and PET scans
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether combining different brain scans (PET, MRI, and special MRI techniques) before surgery can help doctors better understand your brain tumor and plan treatment. The scans also track how the tumor affects your thinking and memory over time.
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to take detailed pictures of your brain tumor. It may help doctors better understand your glioma and plan your treatment.
This trial uses special MRI scans and a contrast agent to look at the immune environment of glioblastoma tumors. It may help doctors learn more about how the tumor responds to treatment.
This study is testing whether special MRI scans and blood tests can help tell the difference between true tumor growth (progression) and a treatment-related reaction called 'pseudoprogression' in people with glioblastoma. The goal is to make treatment decisions more accurate.
This trial looks at a new imaging method to help doctors see brain tumors more clearly before surgery. It may help remove the tumor more safely and completely.
This study looks at whether brain scans (MRI, PET/CT) can help predict the genetic makeup of glioblastoma, without needing more tissue samples. If you join, you'll get advanced imaging to better understand your tumor and guide future treatment decisions.
