Differentiating dural metastases from meningioma: role of 68Ga DOTA-NOC PET/CT.

abstract：BACKGROUND:99mTc-depreotide (NeoTect) is a synthetic somatostatin analogue, which binds to somatostatin receptor (SSTR) subtypes 2, 3 and 5. Imaging patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) using the somatostatin analogue In-pentetreotide (Octreoscan) has demonstrated the feasibility of identifying lymphoma sites wit...
