Total (18)F-dopa PET tumour uptake reflects metabolic endocrine tumour activity in patients with a carcinoid tumour

PURPOSE: Positron emission tomography (PET) using 6-[(18)F]fluoro-L-dihydroxyphenylalanine ((18)F-dopa) has an excellent sensitivity to detect carcinoid tumour lesions. (18)F-dopa tumour uptake and the levels of biochemical tumour markers are mediated by tumour endocrine metabolic activity. We evalu...
