PET/MRI Study on Changes of Fat and Muscle Metabolism.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
False positives for Brown Fat & Muscle（F&M） always affect the evaluation of metabolic disease treatment. Recently, using PET/CT，international journals such as Journal of Nuclear Medicine reported that the amount of active brown fat was correlated with renal creatinine clearance and subject to regulation by atrial natriuretic peptide in addition to association of season and temperature. At present，studies based on PET/CT have shown that elimination of the above factors, brown fat(even muscle) will still appear false positive metabolism in tumor patients. In view of the basis of Positron emission computed tomography/Magnetic resonance (PET/MRI) brain function research，our team speculate that it may be related to psychological or cortex metabolism. And there is a lack of studies on the correlation between the psychosocial，cortex structure and metabolism. Therefore, it suggests that，combination of structure and metabolism，PET/MRI will play a role in studying the effects of psychological on F&M false-positive metabolism in malignant patients. In this project, the investigators intend to observe the changes of F&M metabolism with psychological and cortex metabolism after comprehensive treatment in malignant patient by combining PET/MRI. The relationship between F&M metabolism and psychological will be deeply analyzed to provide scientific basis for the development of the differential diagnosis and assessment.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Observation group of positive F&M The baseline PET/MR scan was performed before comprehensive treatment, and the contrast scan was performed after treatment and the sequence and protocol was consistent. Get psychological assessment before and after treatment and the time interval shall not exceed half a year |
Other: Comprehensive treatment of tumor
According to the pathologic types and TNM stage of tumor，specialists chose one or more of the interventions in surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change metabolism of glucose of M&F [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Glucose metabolic scores will be assessed with visual scale
- Change of the glucose metabolism area of M&F [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Five different anatomical locations (subphrenic, paravertebral, mediastinal, cervical, supraclavicular) will be assessed with visual.
- Change of activated M&F volume [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Activated M&F volume before and after comprehensive treatment were evaluated by post-processing software
- Change of M&F SUVmax and SUVmean [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
SUVmax and SUVmean scores will be measured by post-processing software.
- Change of anxiety symptoms [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Anxiety symptoms scores will be assessed with Hamilton Anxiety Scale.
- Change of sleep [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Sleep scores will be assessed with Pittsburgh sleep quality index one month before scanning
- Change of metabolism of glucose in the M&F [Baseline, 1 day ( Contrast scanning)]
Accumulation of 18F-FDG will be analyzed by treatment-related, psychology-related and intervention-related Positron emission tomography/ Magnetic resonance
