Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the complimentary information of anatomy, perfusion and viability of PET and MR. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * to compare perfusion and anatomy measurements and perfusion related signals from PET and MR imaging and estimate its prognostic values. * to evaluate potential optimization of routine scanning procedure with regards to completeness and potential added value of quantitative measurements.
