68Ga-PSMA Imaging for Liver Cancer
Study Summary
This trial is testing how well a 68Ga-PSMA PET/MRI or PET/CT works in early detection of liver cancer. 68Gallium-PSMA is a radioactive tracer that attaches to the prostate- specific membrane antigen (PSMA) protein on liver cancer cells. PET and CT scans use radioactive drugs and X-rays to produce images of the tissues and organs within the body.
