PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To acquire PET/MRI scans of 100 patients which will be compared with PET/CT scans of the same subjects. The PET/CT scans will be used to provide the gold standard for evaluating the image quality and quantitative performance of the PET/MRI scans. After comparison and evaluation of the imaging capabilities and performance of the sequential PET/MRI imaging system for these 100 subjects, a second cohort of hundred consecutive subjects may be necessary and again comparisons made to the current standard of PET imaging, PET/CT. This validation of the attenuation correction methods and quantitative accuracy of the PET/MRI device compared to PET/CT will be a continuous iterative process that will result in optimized performance of the PET/MRI and will be a key step in its becoming available to other clinical research projects both within the Seidman Cancer Center as well as in other institutions. OUTLINE: After undergoing standard PET/CT, patients undergo PET/MRI.
