Article Synopsis
- Localizing the source of ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) tumors is difficult, but the study examines how effective (68)Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT and contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) are in identifying these tumors in 12 patients.
- CECT successfully located 12 out of 13 lesions, demonstrating a sensitivity of 92.3% and identifying five false positives, while (68)Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT detected only 9 lesions with a sensitivity of 69.2% and no false positives.
- The study concludes that while CECT is the primary method for locating EAS tumors, combining it with (68)Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT can improve diagnosis accuracy
