Summary

To determine the minimum scan duration for fluorine-18 positron-emitting radioactive isotope-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) scans performed on a total-body PET/CT scanner that results in non-inferior image quality to 18F-FDG PET/CT scans performed on a conventional PET/CT scanner. The subject population will be patients being staged for lung cancer, lymphoma, or melanoma.

Conditions

  • Lung Neoplasm
  • Lymphoma
  • Melanoma
  • Fluorodeoxyglucose
  • Positron-emission Tomography

Interventions

DEVICE

uEXPLORER/mCT

Participants will undergo a total-body PET/CT scan with the uEXPLORER scanner first, followed by a PET/CT scan with the conventional mCT PET/CT scanner.

DEVICE

mCT/uEXPLORER

Participants will undergo a PET/CT scan with the conventional mCT PET/CT scanner, followed by a total-body PET/CT scan with the uEXPLORER scanner
