Zusammenfassung

PET/CT hat aufgrund verbesserter Geräteerfassungsmerkmale die diagnostische Bewertung von Phäochromozytomen und Paragangliomen verbessert. PET-Radiotracer für diese Tumoren bewerten häufig die Expression von Somatostatinrezeptoren, Aminosäuretransportsystemen oder den Glukosestoffwechsel. Die Sensitivität ist im Vergleich zu MIBG verbessert, einschließlich bei Tumoren mit SDHx-Genmutationen. Falsch positive Ergebnisse können Läsionen von anderen Tumoren, Meningiomen, entzündlichen Krankheiten oder physiologischer Pankreas-Aufnahme einschließen. Falsch negative Ergebnisse können aufgrund von Harn-Radiotracer-Ausscheidung oder der Verwendung von kalten Somatostatinanaloga zur Tumorkontrolle auftreten.
