3'-Deoxy-3'(18) F-Fluorothymidine Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) for Initial Staging, Radiotherapy Target Definition, and Assessment of Response to Therapy in Patients With Esophageal Cancer: A Pilot Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this pilot study is to develop a more advanced software program that will collect, compare and analyze tumor images for evaluation. Another purpose of this study is to learn if a new radio-tracer for tumor imaging called 3'-deoxy-3'(18) F-fluorothymidine (FLT) can improve the evaluation of tumors during a PET/CT scan. This new type of image tracking is meant to improve the visualization of tumor active and size.
