Interventions

DRUG

Fluorocholine (18F-FCH) Injection

Before the PET-CT scan, the tracer (fluorocholine/FCH) will be injected into a vein in your arm just before the scan. This is the agent we are investigating in this study (not part of the standard procedure)

RADIATION

PET scan

A whole body PET scan will be performed, integrated with either whole body low dose CT or whole body MRI
