Pet-ct scan for belly and pelvic growths
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial uses a special imaging scan called a PET-CT to take detailed pictures of suspicious areas in your belly and pelvis to help find out if cancer is present or has spread. It helps doctors get a clearer picture for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been suspected of having cancer (either new, returning, or spread) based on pathology or other imaging tests.
- You have not had any recent surgery on your belly or pelvic area.
- Your blood sugar level is under 200 mg/dL (the test requires this).
- You are not pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new PET/CT scan using a special tracer to detect cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal carcinomatosis) in people with colorectal, stomach, ovarian, or pancreatic cancer. It aims to see if this scan is better at finding the spread than standard imaging.
This early-phase study uses PET/CT scans to see how well a new radioactive tracer (a tiny dose of a special material) highlights solid tumors in the body. It may help researchers learn whether this tracer can better find and track tumor spots seen on standard scans.
This trial studies how an FDG PET/CT scan (a special imaging test that looks for active cancer activity) can be used in people with high-risk primary or recurring breast cancer. It may help doctors better identify areas of concern and guide future care.
This trial tests a PET scan (a type of imaging) that targets cells in the body that help support cancers. It may help doctors better see where cancer-associated cells are located, which could guide future cancer care.
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (Ga68-FAPI-46) to better see if cancer from the colon, rectum, or ovary has spread to the lining of the belly. If you are already scheduled for surgery to remove these cancer spots, this scan may help your doctors plan a more complete operation.
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a special imaging test) called 18F-FGIn to help doctors better detect and evaluate cancers. It may be more accurate than the standard PET scan for certain tumors like brain, liver, stomach, and colon cancers.
