PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:~I. Evaluate fluorine F 18 tetrafluoroborate (18F-TFB) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) imaging in patients with intermediate or high risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and compare to the current clinical standard.~II. Assess the impact of 18F-TFB PET/CT on clinical management.~OUTLINE:~Patients receive fluorine F 18 tetrafluoroborate intravenously (IV) and undergo PET/CT scan on study.
This phase II study evaluates F-18 tetrafluoroborate (18F-TFB) PET/CT scan in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. Diagnostic imaging is necessary for planning treatment, monitoring therapy response, and identifying sites of recurrent or metastatic disease in differentiated thyroid cancer. 18F-TFB PET/CT may accurately detect recurrent and metastatic thyroid cancer lesions, with the potential to provide information for patient management that is better than the current standard of care imaging practices.
