Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the present study is to assess the role of hybrid PET/CT imaging diagnosis of active malignancy in cancer patients with rising tumor markers after treatment and in the diagnosis of primary tumor in patients with metastatic cancer of unknown origin. The clinical impact of PET/CT in the management and treatment of these two groups of cancer patients will be evaluated
