Group Intervention Description Aim 1A Group 1-64CU-DOTA-ECL1i (radioactive imaging medicine) Normal volunteers and patients with Carotid and Femoral Atherosclerosis who will be having surgery Aim 1B Group 2 64CU-DOTA-ECL1i (radioactive imaging medicine) Patients with Carotid and Femoral Atherosclerosis who will be managed medically and not having surgery
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Evaluation of 64CU-ECL1i , imaging characteristics 1 or 2 days Injecting normal volunteers and patients who have blocked arteries with a single bolus injection. The dose of the injection is 8-10, and the above drug is measured in millicuries, which is a unit of radioactivity.
the dose of millicuries will be 8-10 millicures
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method PET/MR camera, imaging performance 1-2 days Utilizing the PET/MR camera using audiography, which can show the presence and size of the blockage
