Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Multiple Myeloma
Interventions
Other: ACT PET/CT
Registration Number
NCT01691300
Lead Sponsor
Chang Gung Memorial Hospital
Brief Summary

Positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography using carbon-11 acetate (ACT PET/CT) may help detect lesions before treatment and evaluate response following therapy in patients with from multiple myeloma (MM). This study aimed to prospectively assess the clinical utility of ACT PET/CT in MM as compared to the commonly used F18-fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG).
