Prostate-Targeted PET Imaging for Prostate Cancer
(P-PET Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The goal of this study is to evaluate the imaging capabilities of a new prostate-targeted PET system (P-PET) and determine whether it could be useful in detecting prostate cancer by comparing SOC whole body PET imaging. This pilot study will include adult men who have been diagnosed with or are suspected to have prostate cancer. Participants will undergo a standard-of-care PET/CT scan followed by an additional P-PET scan designed to provide detailed images of the prostate. The images from the two scans to assess how well the P-PET system can detect prostate cancer.
