摘要

Somatostatin receptor and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography are used to image neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). The choice of the tracer depends on tumor differentiation. This chapter will answer common questions about PET tracers used in NETs, their clinical applications, advantages, and limitations.
