Résumé

CD premedication was found to increase the value of (18)F-fluorodihydroxyphenylalanine ((18)F-FDOPA) PET/CT imaging in the detection of adult insulinoma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of CD-assisted (18)F-FDOPA PET/CT in the diagnosis and staging of non-functioning pNETs.
