From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults who have cancer surgery, where the removed tissue is scanned with the AURA 10 PET-CT machine.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- All sexes can join
- Disease stage
- People scheduled for surgery to remove a cancer (conditions listed: prostate, breast, head and neck cancer). The scan must show at least part of the main tumor.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Under 18 years old at the time of surgery
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Scan of the removed tissue not usable because of a technical problem or a wrongly given tracer injection
- Not willing to give consent for use of their medical records
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 4 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- All patients that were scheduled for resective surgery and for whom successful high-resolution PET-CT imaging was performed on their resected specimens using the AURA 10 PET-CT. Successful imaging means that the image contains at least a portion of the primary tumor, the radiotracer injection was correctly executed and there were no technical issues that lead to an uninterpretable PET-CT image. Or all patients that are scheduled for resective surgery and for whom high-resolution PET-CT imaging will be performed on their resected specimens using the AURA 10 PET-CT
- Patients willing to provide informed consent for use of their relevant medical records. For retrospectively included patients with no further Long-Term Follow-Up (LTFU) data collection, a notification will be sent
Who cannot take part
- Under the age of 18 years at the time of resective surgery
- Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This registry study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and clinical impact of specimen PET-CT imaging by analyzing the correlation between specimen PET-CT images, intraoperative interpretations, and histopathological findings. Additionally, it assesses how these imaging insights influence clinical decision-making and long-term patient outcomes. Through this comprehensive analysis in a real-world setting, the study seeks to generate valuable insights that can enhance specimen evaluation processes and ultimately improve patient care.
