Conditions

Healthy volunteer

Interventions

Exercise load on the right digital finger (for 30 min, only once) while the left finger is used as control. Effect of the load is evaluated by FDG uptake in skeletal muscles visualized by PET and PEM

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
In this study, images of FDG PEM and FDG PET are compared using a socring system. Spatial resolution of PEM is better than that of whole body PET. If the PEM scanner can visualize the skeletal muscle activity better than a whole body PET, PEM might be able to apply for orthopediac disordrs in hands and forearms. In this study, similar evaluation is to be done also for brain images.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
In addition, standardized uptake value (SUV) is also used as the secondary outcome.
