High-Resolution PET-CT Imaging for Surgical Margin Visualization

NCT06915454 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 50

Last updated 2026-05-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Imaging will be exploratory and be used intraoperatively. There have been no discovered risks associated with the device to be used in this study, and none are anticipated given the diagnostic and non-invasive, 'ex vivo' nature of device use. Of note, the surgical resection will proceed as per standard of care and will not be affected by the research protocol.

Potential Benefit: Imaging intra-operatively will ensure surgeons to identify at risk resection margins.

Time Commitment: There are no additional visits that will be asked of you to partake in this study.

Drug is FDA approved and Exposure to Radiation is minimal.

Conditions

  • Cancer
  • Solid Malignant Tumors
  • SCC - Squamous Cell Carcinoma
  • HNSCC
  • HNSCC,Larynx, Pharynx and Oral Cavity

Interventions

DEVICE

Intra-op PET/CT Specimen Scanner

Once the tumor or cancer is resected, it will then be imaged with the XEOS Aura 10 PET/CT Imaging Device. Imaging will be obtained utilizing a XEOS AURA 10 scanner in real time while in the operating room with the surgery team still present.
