Description
Xingyu Mu and eight co-authors compare two scan times for a new cancer imaging tracer across many tumor types. Their 2023 study uses PET/CT scans with a tracer that homes to activated fibroblasts, common in tumor tissue. Sixty patients were scanned early and late after injection to see which timing reads better.
Background uptake fell by the late scan in most organs, while bone held steady. In all, 194 lesions were found. Just one lesion showed only on the early scan, and early images earned higher visual scores. Lesion uptake also fell from early to late. In a small side group, the early scan beat the standard sugar tracer on detection rate, score, and uptake. The authors favor early imaging for this tracer.
