Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT presents a high sensitivity in detecting metastatic lesions in patients with RAIR. Detectability increases with iodine-resistance, both with and without higher thyroid-stimulating hormone levels. These findings might improve staging and subsequent treatment planning, especially with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
