RUBIKID - Dynamic 82-Rb positron emission tomography (PET) for the grading of KIDney carcinoma
EU CTIS ID: 2024-514085-39-00
What this study is testing
To test whether the intensity of 82-Rb uptake on PET acquisitions is associated to the aggressiveness of RCC on histology (ISUP grades), i.e., to successfully identify high-grade (ISUP grades 3 and 4) vs. low-grade (ISUP grades 1 and 2) RCC.
