New imaging scan for breast cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests a new imaging method using a special tracer and PET/MRI scans to better see breast cancer. It may help doctors plan your treatment more precisely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with local invasive breast cancer (cancer that has spread into nearby breast tissue).
- You are either about to start chemotherapy or other treatment before surgery, or you have recurrent (returning) or new breast cancer.
- You have not had any other type of cancer besides breast cancer.
- You do not have kidney problems or a known allergy to contrast dye.
- You do not have any metal implants that are unsafe for MRI.

This study tests a new imaging agent (18F-FAPI-04) for PET scans to see if it can better detect breast cancer or its spread. It may help doctors find tumors more clearly.
This trial uses a special PET scan (68Ga-FAPi-46) to see how breast cancer interacts with nearby cells. It may help doctors understand your tumor better and guide treatment decisions, especially if you are planning surgery or chemotherapy before surgery.
This trial tests whether a special PET/CT scan using a tracer called FAPI can better detect if breast cancer has spread to lymph nodes under the arm after neoadjuvant treatment. If successful, it could guide more precise surgery and avoid unnecessary lymph node removal.
This trial compares two types of PET scans to see which one better detects ER-positive breast cancer. The results could help doctors choose the best scan for tracking your cancer.
This study uses a special PET scan (FAPI-PET) during routine workup to help detect tumors and decide how far they may have spread. You may be able to take part if you need a staging or restaging scan and can safely complete the imaging.
This study uses a special PET scan called 18F-FAPI-04 to take detailed images of different kinds of cancer. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better find and monitor tumors.
