68Ga-DOTATATE PET
68Ga-DOTATATE PET for meningioma diagnosis
see 68Ga-DOTATATE PET for meningioma diagnosis.
Scanning for somatostatin receptors using 68Ga-DOTATATE PET with co-registration with computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging is now in widespread use for the identification of neuroendocrine tumors, pheochromocytomas, and paragangliomas and their metastases 1).
