ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on improving a type of imaging called PET/CT scans for patients with cancer. The goal is to create clear and detailed images of the whole body in a way that can be done quickly and accurately. This could help doctors better understand a patient's condition and make more informed treatment decisions.

To be eligible for this study, participants should be adults aged 65 and older who need a whole-body PET scan for their cancer diagnosis. They must be able to stay still during the imaging process and provide consent to participate. If you join the study, you will undergo a PET/CT scan, which is a procedure that helps visualize how cancer is affecting your body. The trial is currently recruiting participants of all genders, and it’s important to note that younger patients and pregnant women cannot take part in this study.
