- Title
Somatostatin receptor PET/CT in neuroendocrine tumours: update on systematic review and meta-analysis.
- Authors
Geijer, Håkan; Breimer, Lars H
- Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumours (NET) are uncommon and may be localized in many different places in the body. Traditional imaging has mainly been performed with CT and somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS). Recently, it has become possible to use somatostatin receptor PET/CT (SMSR PET) instead, which might improve diagnostic quality. To evaluate the diagnostic quality of SMSR PET we performed a meta-analysis as an update of a previous study published in 2012.
