Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if adjusting the PET/CT
scanner to allow for breathing motion can improve the quality of PET/CT images.
.
Study Objectives / Outcomes
The objective of this proposal is to study the impact of 4D Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) imaging on the evaluation and staging of lung and colorectal cancer.
This research project has three goals:
1.
Acquire 4D PET/CT data on 26 lung and/or colorectal patients with specific inclusion criteria.
2.
Compare lesion SUVmax between gated and non-gated PET scans.
3. Evaluate the impact of the difference in the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) on
lesion detectability and staging.
