Cerebral hypoxic injury detected by Tc-HMPAO SPECT.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Patients with radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RrDTC) have a rather poor prognosis and are in need of novel treatments. As RrDTCs can in some cases express somatostatin receptors (SSRT), targeting of these receptors by Ga/Lu-DOTATATE could evolve as a novel theranostic option. METHODS...
