“…When there are elevated levels of serum calcitonin and the conventional imaging has negative results, nuclear molecular imaging techniques including 201Tl, 99m Tc-(V)-DMSA, 99m Tc-sestamibi, 99m Tc-tetrofosmin, 123/131I-MIBG, Indium-111-octreotide, and 99m Tc-EDDA/HYNIC-TOC scintigraphy can be used [ 46 , 59 ]. Compared to the above methods using a gamma scintillation camera for patients with neuroendocrine tumor imaging, the new positron emission tomography (PET/CT) methods (18F-FDG-PET, 18F-DOPA, 18F-fluorodopamine, 68Ga-DOTATOC/-NOC/-TATE, 11C-5-hydroxytryptophan) are much more chosen, due to higher sensitivity and more accuracy [ 60 ].…”
