This study is designed to obtain positron emission tomography with x-ray computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging data with each tracer pair, providing the imaging data needed to develop new simultaneous dual-tracer imaging techniques and processing algorithms for these tracer pairs.

The PET technologist will administer approximately 15 millicuries (mCi) of FDG intravenously, and the participant will remain resting during the tracer uptake period. A CT topogram will be obtained, and the PET imaging field-of-view (FOV) selected. The PET scan will then be acquired, acquiring 5 back-to-back "whole-body" (eyes-to-thighs, or similar) scans, providing 5 sequential PET images.
The PET technologist will administer with approximately 4 mCi Cu64-DOTATATE intravenously, and the participant will remain resting during the tracer uptake period. A CT topogram will be obtained, and the PET imaging field-of-view (FOV) selected. The PET scan will then be acquired, acquiring 5 back-to-back "whole-body" (eyes-to-thighs, or similar) scans, providing 5 sequential PET images.

Completion of Two PET/CT Scans Per Patient as Dictated by Assigned Arm
To obtain PET/CT imaging data suitable for developing new simultaneous dual-tracer PET techniques and processing algorithms for dual-tracer imaging of Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) + Cu64-dodecane tetraacetic acid (DOTA) tyrosine-3-octreotate (TATE) (DOTATATE), FDG + Ga68-DOTATATE, and FDG + Ga68-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-11 PET/CT
Time frame: PET/CT exams were obtained on two separate days within a two week span.

The PET technologist will administer with with approximately 5 mCi Ga68-DOTATATE intravenously, and the participant will remain resting during the tracer uptake period. A CT topogram will be obtained, and the PET imaging field-of-view (FOV) selected. The PET scan will then be acquired, acquiring 5 back-to-back "whole-body" (eyes-to-thighs, or similar) scans, providing 5 sequential PET images.
The PET technologist will administer with with approximately 7 mCi Ga68-PSMA-11 intravenously, and the participant will remain resting during the tracer uptake period. A CT topogram will be obtained, and the PET imaging field-of-view (FOV) selected. The PET scan will then be acquired, acquiring 5 back-to-back "whole-body" (eyes-to-thighs, or similar) scans, providing 5 sequential PET images.
