Brief 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.

Arms and Interventions
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: uEXPLORER/mCT
Each patient will undergo a scan on a total-body PET/CT scanner (uEXPLORER) and then undergo an additional scan on a conventional PET/CT scanner (mCT). The first scan will take place 60 minutes after injection with 18F-FDG and the second scan will be 90 minutes after injection with 18F-FDG.
 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.
Experimental: mCT/uEXPLORER
Each patient will undergo a scan on a conventional PET/CT scanner (mCT) and then undergo an additional scan on a total-body PET/CT scanner (uEXPLORER) . The first scan will take place 60 minutes after injection with 18F-FDG and the second scan will be 90 minutes after injection with 18F-FDG.
 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


Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Minimum scan duration on a total-body PET/CT scanner for quality [ Time Frame: One imaging visit up to two hours ]
    To determine the minimum scan duration for 18F-FDG PET/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 over 20 minutes.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Minimum scan duration on a total-body PET/CT scanner for tumor recognition [ Time Frame: One imaging visit up to two hours ]
    To determine the minimum scan duration for 18F-FDG PET/CT scans performed on a total-body PET/CT scanner that results in non-inferior tumor conspicuity to 18F-FDG PET/CT scans performed on a conventional PET/CT scanner over 20 minutes (with an additional 2 minutes of data used for optimization purposes).
