Low-dose, low-specific activity 131I-metaiodobenzyl guanidine therapy in metastatic pheochromocytoma/sympathetic paraganglioma: Single-center experience from Western India
Abstract:Introduction:
Radionuclide therapy is a promising treatment modality in metastatic pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL). There is scarce data on
131
I-metaiodobenzyl guanidine (
131
I-MIBG) therapy from the Indian subcontinent. Hence, we aim to study the safety and effectiveness of low-dose, low-specific activity (LSA)
131
I-MIBG therapy in patients with symptomatic, metastatic PPGL.
