This study tests a new imaging agent that may help doctors see kidney cancer and certain other tumors more clearly on PET/CT scans. It could help find cancer that has spread or come back after treatment.
This trial tests a new PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer to find clear cell kidney cancer. If you are scheduled for kidney tumor removal, this scan may help your surgeon see the cancer more clearly before surgery.
This trial studies a special PET/CT scan tracer that is designed to bind to a protein (Nectin-4) found in some bladder cancers. It aims to help doctors see and stage tumors more clearly, which could improve diagnosis and treatment planning.
This trial tests a special PET scan that may help doctors see if a complex kidney cyst is cancerous before surgery. It is for people who are already scheduled to have surgery to remove a kidney mass.
This trial tests a new PET scan tracer called [68Ga]Ga-XT771 to see if it can better detect glioblastoma (a type of brain tumor) and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (a type of kidney cancer). If you have one of these cancers, this scan might help your doctor see the tumor more clearly.
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a specialized imaging test) that may better detect certain cancers by looking for a specific marker found on many tumor types. The scan uses a new tracer called 18F-T2 to help doctors see cancer more clearly.
