Summary
Stroke and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are common and highly lethal vascular diseases.
Angiogenesis and infiltration of inflammatory cells such as macrophages may cause stroke and
AAAs.
The purpose of this study is to test PET/CT and PET/MRI imaging to specifically detect those
diseases using a new developed agent (18F-FPPRGD2) that can target angiogenesis and
macrophages.
