Impact of PET data driven respiratory motion correction and BSREM reconstruction of 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT for differentiating neuroendocrine tumors (NET) and intrapancreatic accessory spleens (IPAS)

Abstract To evaluate whether quantitative PET parameters of motion-corrected 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT can differentiate between intrapancreatic accessory spleens (IPAS) and pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET). A total of 498 consecutive patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) who underwent 68Ga-DOT...

A total of 498 consecutive patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET) who underwent 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT between March 2017 and July 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Subjects with accessory spleens (n = 43, thereof 7 IPAS) and pNET (n = 9) were included, resulting in a total of 45 scans.
