New PET scan for inflammatory bowel disease activity
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan to see if it can accurately spot inflamed or damaged areas in the intestines of people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). If it works, it could help doctors track disease activity without relying only on invasive tests.
