Purpose: We aimed to compare the diagnostic performance of 68Ga-FAPI-04 (FAPI) in comparison to 68Ga-DOTATATE (SSTR) PET/CT for patients presenting with recurrent medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).
Patients And Methods: Sixteen MTC patients with elevated calcitonin levels (>150 pg/mL) underwent FAPI and SSTR PET/CT. Two nuclear medicine physicians evaluated all images, categorizing lesions into locoregional metastases, mediastinal lymph nodes (LNs), liver, and bone metastases.

Objective: This study sets out to evaluate patients with increased uptake in breast lesions on Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT (DOTA PET) and determine the clinical significance of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) positive breast lesions.
Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all patients with increased SSTR uptake in breast lesions on DOTA PET. Patients with physiological (e.
Objective: The aim of this study was to present our experience in the baseline evaluation of carotid body paragangliomas (CBP) with Ga-DOTATATE PET-CT.
Methods: Five patients (4F, 1M; age 24-73 years) with CBPs who underwent Ga-DOTATATE PET-CT scan before the treatment were evaluated retrospectively. PET-CT images were analyzed visually as well as semiquantitatively, with measurement of maximum standardized uptake value (SUV).
