- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: We hypothesize that the 64Cu-DOTATATE will show uptake in the infected vegetations on the prosthetic heart valves and increase the accuracy of the right diagnosis – thus increasing the sensitivity and specificity compared to 18F-FDG PET/CT;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of this trial is the procentage with higher tracer up-take of 64Cu-DOTATATE-PET og 18F-FDG-PET/CT compared to the clinical diagnosis. And opposite the percentage without tracer up-take that clinically were suspected to have infective endocarditis.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: After scan of 15 patiens with verified infective endocarditis.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): Compare the uptake of 64Cu-DOTATETE and 18F-FDG in the heart valves in infected patients versus newly operated patients at inclusion and after<br>6 monts (group D-F);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of the trial
