Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a subject must meet all of the following criteria: - Histopathological proven melanoma for which 18F-FDG PET-CT is indicated. For example, patients in follow-up or under treatment can be included. - Referral for 18F-FDG PET-CT at Erasmus MC - Signed informed consent - Age >= 18 years - Willing to undergo additional PET-MRI

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Contra-indications to undergo MRI: o Pacemaker, mechanic heart valve, blood vessel prosthetic, stent or coil o Metal in eyes (splinters, from surgery), ears (hearing aid) or on the body where it cannot be removed (insulin pump, piercings etc.) o Dental prosthesis with magnetic system o Claustrophobia - Pregnancy or breastfeeding - Allergy to contrast agent containing gadolinium

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Image analysis for primary endpoint, i.e image quality: - Image quality will be scored on a 4-point scale according to Halpern et al (34) ranging from 0 to 3: 0 (non-diagnostic), 1 (poor), 2 (moderate) and 3 (good). - Lesion detectability between reconstructions will be evaluated by counting the number of 18F-FDG positive lesions per body region (head/neck, thorax, abdomen, soft tissue of extremities and skeleton) according to different reconstructions. The lesions will be categorized as follows: 0 lesions (0), 1 lesion (1), 2 lesions (2), 3-5 lesions (3), 6-10 lesions (4) and >10 lesions (5).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Image analysis for secondary endpoints, i.e. diagnostic performance: Diagnostic performances of the 4 index tests (18F-FDG PET/MRI, 18F-FDG PET-CT, contrast enhanced CT and TB MRI) will be measured on a per-patient level. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV will be calculated based on the per-patient outcomes (0 or >=1 metastasis). Number of metastases will be counted per-patient and will be categorized as follows: 0 metastasis (0), 1-5 metastases (1), and > 5 metastases (2).
