Abstract:Purpose 68Ga-DOTATATE is a somatostatin analogue that has been used for imaging neuroendocrine tumours. However, there is nonspecific uptake in some organs, and the reasons for that are not clear. The aim of the study is to outline the dynamic distribution pattern of 68Ga-DOTATATE in human body, and identify the genes responsible for 68Ga-DOTATATE uptake by bioinformatics analysis.Methods 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was performed in 32 patients, and dynamic total-body PET scanning was performed with uEXPLORER.
