Brief Summary
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate Ga-68 MAA distribution on PET/MRI after injection into the prostatic arteries in patients without prostate cancer who are being treated with prostate artery embolization for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Participants: Study subjects will be 5 men scheduled to undergo the PAE procedure at UNC Hospital for benign prostatic hyperplasia. Procedures (methods): Study subjects will undergo PAE using the standard technique. Prior to embolization of the prostatic artery with the bland embolic agent, Ga-68 MAA will be injected. Standard departmental radiation protection procedures will be followed. After the PAE procedure is complete, the patient will be transported to the UNC Biomedical Research Imaging Center to undergo PET/MRI.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Ga-68 MAA radiotracer activity within adjacent organs
The mean radiotracer levels within adjacent organs in the target population of patients will be estimated in the sample of N=5 patients, along with standard errors, and 95% confidence intervals.
Upon completion of all study image data collection for all participants [approximately 1 year]
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Ga-68 MAA radiotracer activity within the prostate gland
Upon completion of all study image data collection for all participants [approximately 1 year after study start]
Study Arms (1)
All participants
EXPERIMENTALAll enrolled study participants will receive Ga-68MAA and PET/MRI scan.
Interventions
The radiotracer, Ga-68 MAA, will be administered prior to PET/MRI scan.
