Brief Summary

This trial studies how well 68Ga-DOTATATE digital PET/CT work in diagnosing soft tissue sarcoma. 68Ga-DOTATATE is a radiotracer that may improve image quality of PET imaging. PET is an established imaging technique that utilizes small amounts of radioactivity attached to very minimal amounts of tracer, in the case of this research, 68Ga-DOTATATE. CT images provide an exact outline of organs and potential inflammatory tissue where it occurs in patient's body. 68Ga-DOTATATE digital PET/CT may work better in imaging patients with soft tissue sarcomas.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients \>= 18 years of age * Patients diagnosed with any stage of soft tissue sarcomas candidates for systemic therapies * Patients with one standard of care PET/CT scan up to 30 days before enrollment at the Ohio State University facilities. Exclusion Criteria: * Hypersensitivity to somatostatin or similar peptides * Somatostatin long-acting analog in the past 6 months * Patients who are pregnant or lactating * Patients who are currently incarcerated * Patients with acute infections * Inability to complete the needed investigational and standard-of-care imaging examinations due to other reasons (severe claustrophobia, radiation phobia, etc.) * Patients exceeding the weight limitations of the scanner or are not able to enter the bore of the dPET/CT scanner due to body mass index (BMI)
