Pet/ct imaging in patients with glioma
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must be able to lie still in a PET/CT scanner for at least 60 minutes.
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You must not have severe symptoms that need urgent treatment, and your daily activity level must be reasonably good (Karnofsky score of 60 or higher).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This early-phase study tests how well a special PET-MRI scan (using a radioactive tracer) can find and measure low-grade brain tumors. It may help doctors better track these tumors while you start or continue treatment.
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.
This study uses a special PET scan to help doctors tell the difference between side effects of radiation (pseudoprogression) and actual tumor growth in people with glioblastoma. It aims to avoid unnecessary treatments and guide the next steps in your care.
This study uses a special PET/MR scan to look at certain cells called cancer-associated fibroblasts in glioblastoma brain tumors. It aims to see if this imaging approach can better detect tumors or their recurrence, helping guide treatment decisions.
This early-phase study uses special PET/MRI scans to look at how a newly diagnosed high-grade glioma is changing under standard treatment. The goal is to see whether these scans can better assess the disease, which may help guide future care.
This trial tests whether using a special PET scan (a type of imaging that shows tumor activity) during brain tumor surgery helps doctors remove more of the tumor safely. You would have a high-grade glioma (an aggressive brain cancer) and be scheduled for surgery.
