Multicenter Comparison of 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTA-Peptide PET/CT for Pulmonary Carcinoid

Abstract

Overall diagnostic performance of PET/CT in detecting PC is optimal when integrating 18F-FDG and 68Ga-DOTA-peptide PET/CT findings. In the subgroup analysis, the SUV max ratio seems to be the most accurate index in predicting TC. Both methods should be performed when PC is suspected or when the histological subtype is undefined.
