1. Clinically significant abnormalities on EKG or laboratory testing (blood and urine tests) as judged by the principal investigator.
2. Reported pregnancy or pregnancy as determined by positive or indeterminate serum human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (hCG) or urine pregnancy tests prior to radiopharmaceutical dosing.
3. Lactating females.
4. History of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.
5. Lack of adequate venous access.
6. Previous nuclear imaging or therapy administered within 5 physical half-lives of the used radioisotope prior to study enrollment.
7. Inability to lie flat on the PET/CT bed for the planned duration of scan, including claustrophobia and weight greater than the maximum for the scanner (500 lbs).
8. NIH employee who is a subordinate/relative/co-worker of the investigators.
