PET-CT

The following slide kit outlines the principles and steps for somatostatin receptor-based imaging, specifically in managing neuroendocrine tumors.

Current functional imaging techniques in nuclear medicine, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), play an essential role in clinical oncology by aiding early diagnosis, predicting treatment responses, and monitoring the disease. Do you know the key differences between these two techniques?

Learn about the concept of theranostics in oncology and how radiopharmaceuticals, diagnostic and therapeutic compounds labeled with radionuclides, play a central role in this approach.​

This e-book chapter presents the diagnosis and management of patients with pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas, neuroblastomas and medullary thyroid carcinomas.  It also features a clinical case in which radiopharmaceutical therapy was recommended. Additionally, it also presents the potential of radiopharmaceutical therapy in meningiomas.
