This is a prospective, single-center, single-arm, diagnostic phase 2 study in patients with von Hippel-Lindau disease. VHL disease is a rare syndrome characterized by VHL gene mutation and HIF activation. Although genetic testing is available, the manifestations of the syndrome are protean; therefore, imaging plays a crucial role in the identification of abnormalities and subsequent follow-up of lesions. For now, conventional imaging serves as the main radiologic modality in the characterization of VHL disease. In this study, we aim to evaluate the sensitivity of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT in patients with VHL disease. 68Ga-NY104 is a novel small molecule PET tracer targeting carbonic anhydrase IX, which is a down-streaming target of HIF and overexpressed in HIF activation. 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT is likely to function as a sensitive imaging tool to identify VHL-related tumors and to impact patient management if additional lesions are identified. The hypotheses of this study are that * 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT can be used as an effective imaging modality in VHL syndrome with high sensitivity * 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT may detect lesions that are missed on conventional imaging and can result in management impact. A total of 19 patients will be recruited at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. As an exploratory end-point, a 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT sub-study will be performed in patients with evidence of neuroendocrine tumors.

Objectives Primary objective 1. To determine the sensitivity of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT using conventional imaging as reference. Secondary objectives 1. To determine the incremental management impact of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT 2. To assess the interobserver agreement of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT by comparing the two blinded independent readings Exploratory objective 1\. To compare the per-patient, per-region, and per-lesion sensitivity of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT to 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT in an exploratory endpoint Endpoints Primary endpoint 1. Per-patient, per-region, and per-lesion positive rate of 68Ga-NY104 using conventional imaging as ground truth. Secondary endpoints 1. Incremental impact of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT on choice of management, defined as a decision to alter the original plan of treatment (based on conventional imaging) after considering the result of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT (Impact is categorized as high, medium, low or no incremental impact.) 2. Observer agreement in interpretation of 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT between the two independent nuclear medicine readers. Exploratory endpoints 1\. Per-patient, per-region, and per-lesion positive rate of 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 using conventional imaging as ground truth.

68Ga-NY104 PET/CT is expected to be completed within 21 days following screening. Participants will be administered a single, intravenous bolus of 68Ga-NY104 (1.8-2.2 MBq per kilogram bodyweight). PET/CT scanning will occur at 45 -75 minutes following injection of 68Ga-NY104. Conventional imaging should be performed within one month from 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT. It includes contrast-enhanced MRI of brain and contrast-enhanced CT of abdomen and pelvis. 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT is optional in patients with evidence of or in suspicion of pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma, or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. They are encouraged to undergo exploratory 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT for better evaluation of neuroendocrine tumors. The decision, however, is up to the participants. 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT should be performed within one month after 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT. The details of 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT are similar to 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT.

RECRUITINGBinary reading of lesions identified on 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT
Define lesion as PET positive or PET negative lsion
Time frame: From study completion to 1 month after completion
The number of (68Ga-NY104) PET positive lesions
Count the number of lesions (if more than 10, record it as \>10)
Time frame: From study completion to 1 month after completion
The number of (68Ga-NY104) PET positive regions
Any region with at least one (68Ga-NY104) PET positive lesion is considered (68Ga-NY104) PET positive VHL-related region
Time frame: From study completion to 1 month after completion
The number of (68Ga-NY104) PET positive patients
Any patient with at least one (68Ga-NY104) PET positive lesion is considered (68Ga-NY104) PET positive VHL-related patient
Time frame: From study completion to 1 month after completion
Scoring of lesions identified on conventional imaging as very unlikely / unlikely / indeterminate / likely / very likely (score 1-5)
The likelihood of VHL-related neoplasm will be rated combining all imaging features available, including enhancement pattern, typical location, and solitary or multicentric or bilateral distribution.

The intent of initial management plan (Plan 1) based on conventional imaging
Management plan intent (curative, palliative or surveillance): it should be noted that the curative intent in the present study could be organ specific. For example, if the patient has non-symptomatic CNS hemangioblastomas and a solitary renal cell carcinoma, the intent to resect the renal cell carcinoma should be defined as "curative" even if the CNS hemangioblastomas are left undealt with.
Time frame: From study completion to 1 month after completion
The intent of post-PET management plan (Plan 2) based on all information available, including the results of conventional imaging, 68Ga-NY104 PET/CT, and additional confirmatory studies.
