About This Trial
Increased pyruvate-to-lactate conversion is a hallmark of HCC metabolism. In parallel, activation of pro-inflammatory immune cells triggers a metabolic switch towards anaerobic glycolysis. Hyperpolarized carbon-13 (13C) pyruvate MRI is a state-of-the-art non-invasive imaging method that offers real-time insights into tissue metabolism. Recent studies have demonstrated its promising potential in pr…
