Abstract:Metastases outside the liver and abdominal/retroperitoneal lymph nodes are nowadays detected frequently in patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), owing to the high sensitivity of positron emission tomography (PET) with Gallium‐68‐DOTA‐somatostatin analogues (68Ga‐SSA) and concomitant diagnostic computed tomography (CT). Our aim was to determine the prevalence of extra‐abdominal metastases on 68Ga‐DOTATOC‐PET/CT in a cohort of patients with small intestinal (Si‐NET) and pancreatic NET (Pan‐NET), as well a… Show more
