This study compares two types of brain PET scans (tau and amyloid) to see which one better helps diagnose memory problems. You may be eligible if you have mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia and your doctor has already ordered an amyloid PET scan.
This study compares two types of PET scans (FDG and FAPI) in people with suspected or newly diagnosed cancer. It aims to learn which scan gives better images of different cancers, potentially helping guide treatment decisions.
This study compares two types of PET/CT scans (using different radioactive tracers) to see which one is better at finding prostate cancer, detecting if it has come back, or spotting spread to other parts of the body. You will get both scans so doctors can compare them directly.
This study compares two ways of taking PET/CT scan images. It may help doctors choose the best scan method for planning treatment, checking how it’s working, or evaluating infection or inflammation.
This trial compares two types of PET/CT scans (using different radioactive tracers) to see which is better at finding prostate cancer, tracking its return, or spotting spread. It's for people with prostate cancer or those being checked for recurrence after treatment.
This trial compares a two-step nuclear imaging scan (SPECT/CT) versus a PET/CT scan to see which works better for lung cancer. It may help guide doctors on the most useful imaging approach before you start lung-cancer treatment.
