4D PET/CT in Diagnosing Participants With Lung and Colorectal Cancer With Liver and Lung Metastasis

April 10, 2020 updated by: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

4D PET/CT Imaging in Lung and Colorectal Cancer With Liver Metastasis

This trial studies how well 4 dimensional (D) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) works in diagnosing participants with lung or colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and lung. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT, may help find and diagnose disease and find out how far the disease has spread. But the motions made by breathing can reduce the image quality of the scan. Adjusting the scanner to 4D may allow for more breathing motion may improve the quality of the PET/CT images.
