Brief Summary
This clinical trial studies positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients undergoing PET/computed tomography (CT). Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, may help doctors diagnose cancer or help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) on PET/CT Compared to PET/MRI
SUVs for various normal tissues such as liver, cardiac blood pool, and bone will be used. Selected lesions will be assessed as well. Maximum and mean SUVs will be measured for each imaging device. The SUVs and tumor/background ratios will be measured.
After PET/MRI
Individual Quality Scores, Comprised of Various Qualities of the Image and Include Contrast, Brightness, Resolution, Etc.
A Likert five point scale will be used. Quality scores will be compared using a Wilcoxon signed rank test.
After PET/MRI
Comparison of Quality Scores (PET/CT vs PET/MRI), Comprised of Various Qualities of the Image and Include Contrast, Brightness, Resolution, Etc.
A Likert five point scale will be used. Quality scores will be compared using a Wilcoxon signed rank test.
After PET/MRI
Study Arms (1)
Diagnostic (PET/MRI)
EXPERIMENTALAfter undergoing standard PET/CT, patients undergo PET/MRI.
Interventions
University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center \[SCC\] will house the Philips Ingenuity TF PET/MR, which is a hybrid scanner that merges magnetic resonance imaging with positron emission tomography scanning. University Hospitals is one of only five hospitals in the world with this technology. The PET/MRI system consists of two imaging scanners used sequentially as in PET/CT. The 3Tesla MRI component provides the high resolution that is necessary for soft tissue contrast and functional information on perfusion, diffusion, or metabolism. PET provides information about cellular metabolism and receptor status.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Only patients who are referred by their physician to have a clinical PET/CT will be eligible to participate in the study
- we propose to obtain a second PET/MRI on 100 patients after their clinical PET/CT imaging that spans several disease categories and includes the following cancers: lung, colon, melanoma, head/neck and lymphoma
- In addition to oncology patients, we anticipate imaging a subset of non-cancer patients who will also be imaged subsequent to their clinical PET/CT who will be referrals from neurology and cardiology
- All subjects will be at least 18 years old, or if under 18, parents or guardians must give consent
- Subjects must be stable and have experienced no adverse events from previous clinical PET/CT examination
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects unwilling or unable to sign the informed consent form
- Subjects who are cognitively impaired and thus unable to give informed consent
- Patients who are pregnant
