Résumé

Patient premedication with carbidopa seems to improve the accuracy of 6-(18)F-fluoro-3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine ((18)F-FDOPA) PET for insulinoma diagnosis. However, the risk of PET false-negative results in the presence of carbidopa is a concern. Consequently, we aimed to evaluate the effect of carbidopa on (18)F-FDOPA uptake in insulinoma β-cells and an insulinoma xenograft model in mice.
