Rationale: Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX) positron emission tomography (PET) is an accurate and non-invasive imaging modality for the detection and characterisation of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) but evidence in the setting of high-risk renal cancer is lacking. We conducted an exploratory investigation to integrate whole-body CAIX-PET imaging with tissue-level validation and to assess the potential impact of CAIX-PET on systemic staging ...
