Description

Ten authors led by Mathieu Pavoine swap patient blood read curves for a stock curve to shorten full-body cancer scans. The scans track sugar-tagged tracers in spread skin cancer under immune care. True maths of uptake needs the blood curve for a full hour post-dose. A stock curve, fit once on a group and scaled per patient, cuts that need.

Thirty-seven patients from a live trial fed the build and check sets. Stock and true curves matched well across nine short cut spans of the hour. Uptake rates for organs, growths, and flare spots held near tied by both paths. Short scans mean less bed time and less ill rest for frail patients.
