Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Post acquisition of [18F]mFBG PET-CT imaging.;Main Objective: The primary objective of this study is to compare [18F]mFBG PET-CT imaging to conventional CT imaging performed in pheochromocytoma patients. ;Primary end point(s): The number of detected pheochromocytoma lesions with pathological [18F]mFBG uptake, defined as focal uptake above surrounding normal tissue compared to number of lesions detected on protocollary conventional CT imaging.;Secondary Objective: - To determine the optimal time point of [18F]mFBG PET-CT imaging via comparison of SUV values 1 and 2 hours on PET-CT imaging. <br>- To correlate [18F]mFBG PET findings with pathology and immunohistochemistry analysis of norepinephrine transporter. <br>- To estimate radiation dose of [18F]mFBG in normal tissues using dynamic PATLAK imaging.<br>- To perform a safety analysis of [18F]mFBG administration on clinical symptoms by Adverse Events outcomes.<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): 1) Optimal time point of [18F]mFBG PET-CT imaging via comparison of SUV values at 1 and 2 hours on PET-CT imaging. <br>2) Correlation of [18F]mFBG PET findings with pathology and immunohistochemistry analysis of norepinephrine transporter. <br>3) Estimation of radiation dose of [18F]mFBG in normal tissues using dynamic PATLAK imaging<br>4) Safety analysis of [18F]mFBG administration on clinical symptoms will be evaluated by Adverse Events outcomes<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1) Post acquisition of [18F]mFBG PET-CT;<br>2) Post surgery;<br>3) Post acquisition of [18F]mFBG PET-CT;<br>4) Up to 72 hours post injection.
