Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study parameter is the uptake of [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-(RGD)2 in the lesions<br /><br>as quantified by PET/CT (SUVmean ±SD, SUVmax ±SD and SUVpeak ±SD). </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>1) spatial correlation (per lung segment) with ground-glass opacities,<br /><br>consolidation, vessel size and other components of CORADS system<br /><br>2) spatial correlation (per lung segment) with perfusion abnormalities as<br /><br>measured by subtraction CT<br /><br>3) quantitative correlation with blood counts and differentiation, ferritin,<br /><br>D-dimer, CRP, liver enzyme panel (ALAT, ASAT, direct and indirect bilirubin,<br /><br>alkaline phosphatase, gamma-GT, LDH), cytokines, as obtained by approved study<br /><br>BioMarCo-19 (CMO 2020-6344)<br /><br>4) correlation with the following clinical parameters: ICU admission,<br /><br>mechanical ventilation parameters, oxygen demand, length of ICU stay (days),<br /><br>length of hospital stay (days).<br /><br>Additional study parameters are uptake in the myocardium and the<br /><br>lung-to-background ratio (LBR). </p><br>
